Radical Zine Series - Volume 1 Launch
Help celebrate and launch the first four Radical Zines re-designed and re-purposed in a collaboration between Wellington Zinefest and the Freedom Shop.
When: Thursday, 10 December at 6pm
Where: at the Freedom Shop - in Opportunities for Animals, 162 Riddiford St, Newtown
We selected classic zines from our archives for a creative reimagining. With the help of donors from a Boosted campaign, four local illustrators were commissioned to reimagine these relatively simple, text-heavy zines into fully illustrated beautiful works!The radical zine redesign project has helped make the important ideas within these zines even more accessible. We'll be selling the redesigned texts and cheaply as possible so that we can share their learnings with as many people as possible.
The four zines are:
- Are We All New Zealanders Now? by Dr Ani Mikaere, redesigned by Izzy Joy
- "The Problem With White Saviours" by Simone Kaho, redesigned by Kata Brown
- Rongoā by Emily Tuhi-Ao Bailey, redesigned by Jamie Terekia
- The Tyranny of The Clock by George Woodcock, redesigned by George Naylor
These four zines are the first volume in this series, but there will be a second round, too! On the evening we'll announce the next four zines to be re-designed, and together with ZineFest we'll be seeking more illustrators and designers to help bring to life to more classic and new zines.
