The Photocopy Club X UCL East: zines IN TRANSIT

The Photocopy Club is driving over to the Olympic Park in east London to deliver FREE zine-making workshops for one day only, in the newly refurbished portable zine library.

Led by Matt Martin, the workshop will explore themes of the natural environment, photography and self-publishing. Experimenting is encouraged and you will leave with a finished photography zine of your own.

All you will need is a phone or iPad to design your zine, and an interest in making. Paper and printing materials provided.
