Make your own zine in this upcoming workshop series, led by Tod Lippy and local Maine Zine makers! This series animates ideas in the Colby Museum’s upcoming exhibition A Lot More Inside: Esopus Magazine. Tod will begin with a light history of zine-making; discuss his own experiences making zines, and ultimately, Esopus; and he will provide inspiration and instruction as folks begin to form their own creations. This workshop series is free and all skill levels are welcome! Attendance at all four sessions is strongly encouraged.

The exhibition A Lot More Inside: Esopus Magazine presents archival materials and original artworks associated with the abundant publication. It includes audio and video artifacts, photographs of studio visits and press runs, handwritten notes and diagrams, email exchanges, issue mockups, printers’ proofs, and artists’ notes. These are contextualized by select loaned and commissioned works. The show offers a behind-the-scenes vantagepoint on an innovative magazine committed to providing an unfiltered, unmediated (ad-free) experience of pure creative expression.
