Recipes for Resistance: A Food Zine Workshop with Christina Hajjar
September 15 at11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Free
Sunday, September 15, 11 am-2 pm
Zines are self-published booklets suitable for food narratives expressed through memoir, poetry, collage, comics, short stories, recipes, and more. Facilitator Christina Hajjar will present on food zines, exploring their varied aesthetics and political contexts. There will be some low-pressure group activities and plenty of time to explore zines, eat, and get started on your own project! In addition to drawing from some Palestinian examples, we’ll also write postcards in support of Palestine. This session is part lecture, part hands-on, with open time to read, mingle, and reflect on the themes of diaspora, food justice, and the role of print media.
No previous experience is necessary. Materials and snacks will be provided. Masks are mandatory but may be removed for eating.
Space is limited. Interested participants can email bronwyn@plugin.org with the subject line “zine workshop” to confirm their spot.
