Weds 8/19, 6-9PM
Instructor: Marty McMahon
In “Punk Zines 101” you will learn a brief history of zine making in relation to punk, feminist, and queer subcultures. Students will then learn how to make a single sheet, 8 page zine. Each person will have time to make their own zine using markers, pencil, collage- and any other materials you’d like to bring! We will then use the risograph copiers to make several single-color copies which we will fold and trade amongst ourselves. Students of this class are encouraged to make zines about a topic they are passionate about, but they can be about anything! Feel free to bring art materials, images you’d like to collage with, and ideas.
Marty McMahon is a Richmond based painter, printmaker, zine maker, and multimedia artist. Growing up in Annapolis, Maryland instilled a lifelong love of water in McMahon, and growing up Catholic gave him something to make fun of. Marty moved to Richmond in 2018 and has been an exhibiting artist ever since. His work is defined by his relationship to the queer community, and explores themes of sexuality, humor, and ecology.
