Create a zine from recycled materials!
Local Teacher and Poet Alexandra McIntosh will introduce teens to zines, as well as provide hands-on experience in designing and crafting their own.
Alexandra McIntosh lives and writes in Kentucky, her favorite place in the world. She currently teaches high school English and writes poetry and prose contemplating the natural world, the landscape of memory, mental illness and classic rock. Her book Bowlfuls of Blue is available from Assure Press. In collaboration with her husband, Brad Davis, oil painter, McIntosh oversees "Plein Air Poetry," a Substack blog and collaborative project inspired by the rich history of artists painting outside ("en plein air" in the Impressionist tradition), pairing paintings with poems (or poetic prose) done on site.
This program was made possible through generous support from the Kentucky Arts Council. The Kentucky Arts Council, the state arts agency, provides operating support to Campbell County Public Library and Alexandra McIntosh with state tax dollars and federal funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.
