BRAIN WAVES, the print + zine department at STOREFRONT, opens tonight from 7pm-9pm at the gallery [see the announcement here].
I am excited to officially announce that my librarian hero, Kate Angell, and I, will be presenting a Teen Zine Workshop at Connecticut's Westport Library in just two weeks! We'll be talking a bit about zine history in the context of riot grrrl and conducting a how-to session, with materials provided by the library.

I was also stoked to discover that the workshop has been deemed parent-friendly by NY Metro Parents. Hi Mom!
