Students will receive a crash course on the histories of the Scarab Club and of zines as a medium for communication. This will culminate in the creation of a zine that mirrors the ethos of the intended contemplation: art, literature, music, etc. can be a way to better connect to the world around us and understand each other. We will have guided prompts for each page that students will fulfill through various modes of expression. By the end of the workshop, students will have created their own zines that they can distribute.
