Margin Notes

Event Overview

Across the two hours, we’ll combine our reflections and creations into a collaboratively produced zine or small book, which will be shared and distributed within the community. This workshop is an opportunity to engage deeply with local art, experiment creatively, and take part in a collective publishing process that highlights diverse perspectives and voices.

Whether you’re an artist, writer, or simply curious about creative collaboration, this is a welcoming space to connect, create, and contribute to a tangible piece of community art.

Info: Brief overview of the workshop purpose and goals.

Explain the process: group work → discussion → creative response → zine contribution.

Introduce the selection of local artworks.

Info: Divide participants into small groups (3-4 people).

Each group chooses one artwork to focus on (or is assigned one).

Quick group introductions - who's here and why they joined.

Info: Groups produce a visual or written response inspired by their analysis.

Visual options: collage, illustration, abstract interpretation, photo remix, etc.

Written options: poem, short text, reflection, dialogue, or micro-essay.

Provide art and writing materials; digital options if applicable.

Encourage experimentation - the goal is expressive response, not perfection.

Info: Each group shares their response briefly with the room (2-3 mins per group).

Discuss connections between artworks, community themes, or creative processes.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
