Join artist and series creator Zarina Saidova at a colorful drop-in workshop during Oslo Culture Night!
Do you have a story you want to tell, a character you want to invent, or a world you want to explore? In this workshop we create our own fanzines – small, self-made booklets filled with drawings, stories, ideas, and imagination.
We cut, glue, draw, stamp and fold, and explore how a simple page of paper can become a mini-magazine all its own. There are no right or wrong solutions, just lots of room for creativity and the joy of making.
Come by whenever it suits you during the evening, either alone, with friends or with your family, and take your own fanzine home with you!
