This festival is not just for spectators. For the DIY crowd, Zine Fest has some awesome craft workshops. On Saturday learn to make a soft-felt case for your electronic devices at DIY Gadget Cases (12-12:50pm) and stick around for Bookbinding: Basics and Beyond (1-2pm). Come back on Sunday for Intro to Screenprinting (12:30-1:30pm). And by the way, these workshops are all free! Interested on creating a zine of your own? Attend a few panels (also free) like Memoir Comics: Life In Ink (Sat 4-4:50pm) and Graphic Journos in Conversation (Sun 3-3:50pm) to learn more about the edgy art form. Any type of artist can benefit from attending Making Time: An Artist’s Forum (Sun 4-4:50pm), where artists discuss how they manage their time, organize their projects, and get their goals accomplished.
