Zine Club Chicago Online x Meanwhile: Over the Hill Edition
7:30 p.m. CST Tuesday, January 25 on Zoom
Free!
This month, Zine Club Chicago incredibly excited to hand over its event to the amazing minds behind Meanwhile Chicago, who will bring their unique zinemaking-meets-storytelling show to our little corner of Zoom. Expect thrilling performers, inspiring zine prompts, and the high-spirited fun that only the Meanwhile hosts can generate, all focused on the theme Over the Hill.
Performers will include Aim Beland, Linda Kawano, and Liz Mason & Cynthia E. Hanifin! The Meanwhile crew — Megan Kirby, Catherine Eves, and DJ Williams — will share zinemaking prompts so you can create along at home. All you’ll need is some plain paper and your favorite writing/drawing implement.
Grab your zinemaking supplies, BYOS(nacks), and join us on Zoom for Zine Club Chicago Online x Meanwhile: Over the Hill Edition at 7:30 p.m. CT Tuesday, January 25!

Zine newbies and longtime enthusiasts alike are always welcome at Zine Club Chicago, the city’s only book club-style event for people who read zines.
