techniques to produce both visually engaging zine, which is accommodated with

Creating my own club night which puts people of Colour and Queer bodies at the centre. The club night has a strict no camera policy and urges guest to express themselves through what they wear. Creating each night in accordance to what is going on in the world. The first being the End of the World due to the climate crisis and the second being the revolution due to the recent election results. We hand out manifestos during the night to help people learn and absorb how to speak about and engage with the experiences of people of colour.
