We are starting the first Ukrainian Zine Library!

We're excited to announce the launch of the very first Ukrainian Zine Library (that we know of) at the SVI Library, located at 620 Spadina Ave. in Toronto, happening this September. We invite collaborators with Ukrainian content to celebrate creativity and culture by contributing to this exciting initiative. Let's unite to showcase our community's diverse voices and perspectives through the art of zines.

what is a zine? що таке зіни?

A zine (pronounced zeen) is a small, self-published booklet featuring original or appropriated content, often created using a photocopier. Typically non-commercial, zines focus on niche topics, art, or personal narratives. They can be entirely visual, entirely text, or a mix of both. Handmade and self-published, zines can vary in size and length, and can be made by anyone who has something to express.
