The One Zine After Another is a collaborative workshop facilitated by Craig Moser. Taking a gonzo or fear and loathing approach, Participants will contribute pages to three zines of three different sizes with themes of "Resist", “Trust” , and “Action” . This is Ideal for ready and experienced artists to test and share their narrative and artistic skills through zine making in a safe,inclusive and encouraging environment, Visual art methods include photography, collage, writing, poetry, drawing, painting,and mixed media.
Participants are guided to reflect on what wants to land. This may be a word, phrase, symbol, drawing, mark, or image that holds personal meaning. Using underglaze materials, participants will paint directly onto a pre-made bisqued ceramic slab, allowing intuition, gesture, and curiosity to guide the process rather than technical perfection.
This workshop emphasizes slowing down, tuning in, and exploring clay as a surface for thought and feeling. After underglazing, a transparent glaze will be applied to preserve the work beneath.
All pieces will be professionally fired and finished with hanging hardware by Zana, then made available for pickup at a later date.
Open to all ages and skill levels, this workshop offers a welcoming, low-pressure space to play, reflect, and create something meaningful to live with on your wall.
