Join the Cut Out Club on International Peace Day for an uplifting afternoon filled with sustainable zine-making. Using only scrap, donated, and reclaimed materials, we’ll explore themes of peace, unity, and environmental action – turning discarded paper into powerful personal and collaborative works ✂️

Open to all experience levels, and all materials provided. Workshop is free to attend, but booking is required to secure your spot – ticket link coming soon, watch this space.

This workshop is taking place as part of the Highlands & Islands Climate Festival 2025, taking place from 13th September to 8th October. Kindly supported by the Highlands & Islands Climate Hub.

How do we build something beautiful, useful, and radical, out of what others might throw away? Inspired by How To Build a Library (2025, dir. Maia Lekow & Christopher King), we will be hosting a FREE sustainable zine-making workshop as part of Take One Action's film festival, which invites you to dig into the possibilities of scrap, story, and solidarity.

The film follows two Kenyan women as they transform a forgotten, junk-filled library in Nairobi into a vibrant hub for citizens. In the same creative spirit, we’ll use exclusively repurposed materials to collage zines that reflect our hopes for a better world.

You do not need to have seen the film to participate. This event is open to all experience levels, and all materials will be provided. Let’s imagine a real utopia – one page at a time!
