Zine Making Workshop with Rusty

Be guided through the world of small publishing, zine making and gelli printing in this wonderful, creative workshop.

Through personal and collaborative making, you will explore the ideas of our relationships working with paper and print. Taught by printmaker and zine-faniatic, Rusty, you will be led through start to finish of the making of a small publication. During the 2 hour workshop you will get to cut, stick, print, staple or even sew your way through producing your own personal A5 zine publication (or more if you’re feeling up to the challenge).

You will also collaborate with other workshop attendees in producing a Gelli Plate printed
publication based on what you learnt during the workshop.

Nothing is off the table when it comes to zine making: This workshop is perfect for anyone
looking to introduce themselves to fun, friendly, explorative making.

All materials for the workshop will be provided, but we encourage to bring along any:
• Paper, Card (A4/A3)
• Newspaper, Magazines, Leaflets, Personal images (that you’re willing to cut + stick)
• Found ephemera + objects
• String, wool, thread
• Stamps
(These items are not required to bring for the workshop, but are suggested to make your work
more personal).

Robin 'Rusty' Felix Griffiths is an award winning dyslexic, professional loudmouth and Cornish Queer artist. With a focus on printmaking and the ‘folk’, his practice strides towards making art as accessible as possible, whilst trying to
make a few people think and laugh along the way.
