Anyone who likes the zine reviews I post sometimes, I just found out about this upcoming event from Transition Heathrow:
A zine drop-in workshop with OOMK.
Participants will be invited to use various templates and collage
materials to create their own future city zines to take away. There will
be zines on display for participants to draw inspiration from.
