Welcome to Highland Zine Bothy
SOBER-NESS Vision Boarding : Saturday 31 January 2026
Join our vision boarding workshop as part of an all-day SOBER-NESS mini fest hosted by Highland Wellness Collective.
We'll be celebrating sober culture through creativity and collaboration. Throughout the day, there are a number of different sessions planned: yoga, drag workshops, DJ sets, mocktail masterclasses, vision boarding, and other creative activities!
It's FREE to join (booking link coming soon), so some along to socialise and unleash your creative side in our completely alcohol-free space.
Highland Zine Club [PILOT] : Sun 1 Feb 2026, 12-4pm
We want to start a Highland Zine Club. This will be a space to hang out, make stuff, and shape what this zine club could become in the future.
During the pilot session, we’ll brainstorm and vision board ideas for the club, such as what themes we want to explore, what kind of materials to use, and how we might collaborate with other creative groups. Then, we’ll turn those ideas into zines! Everyone will get to make their own, and anything created can be added to the Highland Zine Bothy collection if people want to share their work.
The event will include a hot meal for lunch halfway through to chat, eat, and connect. It’s all about creating a relaxed, welcoming space where everyone can express themselves and help shape something new for the local creative community. This event is supported by Moniack Mhor's Youth Led Creative Fund.
A booking link will be made live shortly. Watch this space.
Pages That Bloom : Paper-making Workshop, Feb 2026
Using leftovers from previous zine-making workshops, join us to make handmade seed paper journals in this two-part workshop series.
In the first session, you'll learn how to make new handmade paper from waste, with guidance every step of the way. Then in our second session, you'll learn bookbinding techniques to turn those sheets of paper into a journal. Once its pages are used up, plant them in the spring and watch it bloom into beautiful wildflowers!
DATES TBC, so watch this space. Hosted by Cut Out Club. Generously supported by Scotmid Coop Community Grant and the Highlands and Islands Climate Hub's Climate Action Fund.
