SAAC: “Mini Masterpieces: A Collage Zine Workshop” with Jill Stone

The South Arkansas Arts Center invites the community to explore the art of storytelling through collage and paper craft at “Mini Masterpieces: A Collage Zine Workshop,” led by El Dorado native and University of Arkansas student Jill Stone, on Saturday, November 15, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The full-day workshop is $40.

This hands-on workshop will guide participants through the process of creating mini collage zines—small, handmade paper books often called mini magazines or fan zines. Using folded paper, participants will construct pocket-sized books of eight pages each, with the opportunity to produce multiple zines throughout the day.

Stone will encourage participants to draw inspiration from favorite poems, literary works, or their own original writing, pairing words with images in inventive collages. Using found and recycled materials—books, magazines, packaging, tags, labels, scraps, and more—participants will transform everyday paper into artful expressions of creativity.
