Have you Zine this?
July 18 @ 11:00 am–1:30 pm
Today's Adventure Ecology:
Join us for a creative and impactful art workshop on nature related zines. Zines are self published booklets informing their audience about a unique subculture or idea in a creative, imagery-driven format. Participants will be encouraged to explore a topic surrounding Squam or nature that they feel strongly about. LRCC member Casey Meisel will help channel knowledge on this topic into a zine with an informative discussion on zines. Using group brainstorming and examples participants will be given art supplies and guidance in making their zine come to life.
This is a low stakes environment where creativity, community, and acceptance are valued over art skills. All ages are encouraged to join. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
This is a free event. Registration is required (click the button below)!

The Squam Lakes Association is dedicated to conserving for public benefit the natural beauty, peaceful character and resources of the watershed. In collaboration with local and state partners the SLA promotes the protection, careful use and shared enjoyment of the lakes, mountains, forests, open spaces and wildlife of the Squam Lakes Region.
What to bring:
Participants should meet at the SLA barn by 11:00 AM. All art supplies will be provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own. Magazines and newspapers make great supplies for zine crafting, so if you have extra lying around feel free to bring them.
