Zine Club For Parent, Carers & their Babies £15 (£6 low income 1 spot available)

A weekly Zine Club for Parents, Carers & their babies to learn to zine, get to grips with the fold, learn new techniques, have fun, meet new people, and get a bit analog!

Ever wanted to make your own zine and share your passions and interests? Then come along to the Zine Club. A zine is a hand made, folded booklet where we use crafts and collage to express ourselves and explore our voice. Each week I'll introduce some of my zine collection and a new technique or theme to help us create. Come with your babe, put away your device and to-do list, forget your troubles for a bit and enjoy the beautiful setting of the Mansion to create something special. 

Parents & carers have a big job to do raising beautiful babies and that job takes up most of the day, leaving very little time for yourself and creativity. It's easy to forget yourself and your needs. And one of those needs is the space to be creative - a chance to step away from logic and routine and be a little bit looser and free. It's also empowering to tap into your own identity for a while - as well as a carer you are also a person - a fabulous person, no doubt! And I believe that we don't have to separate ourselves from our babies to create. There's not better way to honour self care than be around others and make a cute little book!
