Come along to the Coin-Operated Press June Zine Club in Edinburgh! This month, we're making zines celebrating all things Pride!!
About this Event

This month, the theme is all about celebrating Pride Month! I'll bring a selection of LGBTQ zines from our collection for you to get inspired by, and then we can dive into making our own queer mini-zines together! and I can demonstrate the technique to fold a mini-zine if you've never made one before.

However, there is no pressure to join in on this theme - you can bring your own projects to work on or dive into our collection of collage materials and art supplies to make your zines! We will have a bunch of prompts lists if you are stuck for ideas! We also welcome you to bring your own zines to show off, or pass around for creative feedback, self-promotion, ideas, and/or to trade with others!!


All experience levels are welcome!
Never made a zine before? Never even heard of a zine before? Wondering what the heck we're talking about?! We will show off some zines from our collection so you can get a good idea of what zines are all about!


All materials are provided!
But please feel free to bring any collage supplies (this can include old magazines, photos, product packaging, cool stationery, ribbons, sequins, and so much more!) or your favourite art supplies if you want to add a personal touch to your zine pages!


Numbers are limited, so please register here, and entry is by donation:

£3-5 is a fantastic solidarity payment, and we really appreciate your support.

£7 will help cover material costs and printing your copy of the zine.

£15 will fully cover all workshop costs.

£15+ is super appreciated if you are able, as it will help us to continue our work with zine-outreach programmes and publishing the work of those who might not otherwise be published.

We also welcome you to donate any of your unwanted art and craft supplies to us for use in our workshops, as well as any old magazines or paper collage materials you want to save from the recycling bin!


This workshop will take place at Calton View Cafe, 9 Jeffrey Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1DR
