Directions
As queer Asian individuals, how do we carve out our own space in official history? How might we write alternative histories, create our own senses of place and belongings, build communities, and make sense of our identities? In this interactive workshop co-presented by UBC Hong Kong Studies Initiative, SFU Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies, SFU Institute For Transpacific Cultural Research, and Queer Reads Library, artist-writer Rachel Lau will guide us through the process of zine-making as a way to rewrite queer Asian narratives and places.
Attendees will create their own personal zines. No prior skills or experience necessary.
The workshop is free and open to all. Limited spots available. Registration required.
