Workshop “ZINE design”

“Dresden spricht…” Workshops, guided tours, writing and printing workshops under the motto “Language and writing. Dresden speaks many languages”

“Talking to yourself”
Designing a language-biographical zine

Everyone knows anecdotes about language. Stories about puns, embarrassing misunderstandings and funny slips of the tongue. We also remember our language lessons. Difficult phrases stick in the memory.

Illustrator and workshop leader Rosa Brockelt will show you how to creatively turn stories and experiences into zines. The end result is a personalised booklet or notebook made up of texts, pictures and drawings.

What are zines?

Small, self-published booklets, usually cut or folded from a single sheet of paper, which can be designed and reproduced with little effort. They can be designed in different ways. It is a versatile medium for expressing oneself visually and in writing.

Das Projekt “Dresden spricht…” wird gefördert durch das Staatsministerium für Soziales und Gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt. Diese Maßnahme wird mitfinanziert mit Steuermitteln auf Grundlage des vom Sächsischen Landtag beschlossenen Haushaltes im Rahmen des Landesprogrammes Integrative Maßnahmen.
