Join Multitudes Zine Fest for this special series of zine making workshops!

First things first: these workshops are for LGBTQ+ people only, and if you're not sure if you're queer enough or trans enough or bi enough to count, you are and you do and we especially want you here.

📅 Date: Thursdays Oct 12th, 19th, and 26th - three weeks in a row

⏰ Time: 18:00:00 GMT+0100 (British Summer Time)

📍 Location: 49-51 Sidney Street, Manchester, M1 7HB

Whether you're an experienced zine maker or just starting out, this workshop series is open to everyone.

We'll take you step by step through designing, writing and making a zine: a self-published mini-magazine that can hold whatever you want - poems, personal stories, political tracts, comics, artwork, recipes, rants, or anything else you can think of.

We've been making zines and organising zine-related events for a long time now, and have noticed that zine spaces are often pretty homogenous (very white and very middle class, among other things) - and in ways that just don't reflect our own lives. We decided to make a zine space focused on Black, brown and global majority, neurodivergent, disabled, working class and LGBTQ+ zine-makers. Focused on those of us who, in multiple overlapping ways, aren't already at the centre of the publishing world, the literary world, and the art world.

This workshop series is supported by Manchester Pride's Superbia programme. Superbia curates and funds projects that benefit LGBTQ+ communities in Greater Manchester.
