Collage Zine With Youth Activity Plan

Share

Take some time for each person to share what they created and discuss it with the group.

Create the Zine

With youth permission, scan the collages and the accompanying reflections

Zines for printing can be made using a zine template

Upload the collage images with their descriptions

Create a cover image

Write an introduction that gives the context of the zine Keep in mind printing limitations when designing the zine, for example: black backgrounds will be expensive to print

If you intend to create a virtual zine the collages and reflections can be formatted on Microsoft Word, Googledocs, Canva or a different platform with editing abilities

Modify the Activity for Your Group

You may want to give participants the chance to work in pairs or small groups. You can also consider exhibiting the collages around the room after the activity so the group can discuss each-others work and exchange ideas. Additions or modifications can make the activity more meaningful for your group.
