Saturday 26 October 2-5pm in the Olive Bar at the Gregson Centre

Madzines are one means of challenging and contesting mainstream understandings about mental health. Jill will give  a brief overview of the Madzines project and bring along the Madzines library, whiich there will be an opportunity to explore.  The collection includes examples of perzines (personal zines, written by a single individual) and collaborative zines.  It touches on a wide range of subject matter relating to experiences of madness and distress.  Jill will also bring along zine making materials and there will be a chance to make zines for ourselves, and/or for lodging in the Gregson Centre Zine library.  There will be a Madzines takeover of the zine library during the month of November and  Jill will explain about that and some linked events.
