Solastalgia: Zine Making #2

Addressing Climate Anxiety through Community Building and Art-Making. This session we will co-create issue #2 of a community Zine.

Join RAVEN for another round of Solastalgia: Addressing Climate Anxiety through Community Building and Art-Making. At these events the RAVEN community comes together to discuss our climate anxieties (and potential actions to take to address them) through community building and art-making. 

This hands-on zine making workshop will offer an opportunity to express some of our fears, ideas, and dreams when it comes to a more just and liveable future. Weaving in ideas of how we can connect across difference and take action as individuals and as a community, from diverting personal waste to showing up in solidarity with Indigenous rights movements — we will discuss a multitude of ways we can all participate in re-imagining the future. We will sip tea, share stories, and make space for creativity and connection to see what can bloom from an afternoon together. The theme of this issue will be, “Collective Action.”

RAVEN will provide any materials needed, but feel free to bring magazines, books, stickers, or other materials that you are comfortable cutting up. 

*RAVEN’s Zine Issue #1 will be available in print for those who may want a copy.
