Sheboyzine Fest

About the Sheboyzine Fest: 

Join artists and instructors from throughout the Midwest for the inaugural SheboyZine Fest. Come to learn about this community-building, grassroots DIY art form that offers a path for independent artists and makers to share their voices and visions in a no to low-cost fashion. Bring your own zine to share at our zine- trading table, or join a workshop to make your very own zine. The event is open to all ages and skills.
