RISE: 2019This issue’s theme will be 'Protecting the planet: politics and protest'. We want your personal responses - in the form of art, poetry, short stories (max. 500 words), music or drawings - if it can be printed, send it!
Keep in mind, we will be printing the zine in black and white, but your contribution will be displayed in its full coloured glory at our launch event hosted at Makespace Oxford on Monday 2nd December - put it in your diary! You are also all welcome to a cut and stick session at Common Ground on Saturday 23rd November to put the zine together… Email your submissions to: rise.ocs@gmail.com sometime before midnight on the 15th of November 2019! |
RISE: 2018RISE zine was created in 2018 as a collaboration with Tandem Collective, a local group whose mission is to influence positive change towards social justice and environmental sustainability through arts and creativity. The zine included a range of poetry, art, and writing inspired by the climate catastrophe, from students and the wider Oxford community. To assemble the zine, we invited members of the general public to come and design the pages of the zine themselves at Common Ground café, collaging the pages with magazine clippings and drawings of their own. The zine was launched in Spring 2018, at a celebration involving poetry readings and music from local artists.
The zine is printed on recycled paper using sustainable Riso inks by Oxford GreenPrint, an eco-friendly printing service based on Cowley road. Please e-mail rise.ocs@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing a copy. |
