Using the backdrop and themes of winter, night and starlight, the zine is compiled of words, poetry, art and photography, featuring artists from our community, spanning all across North America. The idea for a community-based Zine was born out of the intersection of art, nature and community. We loved toying with the concept of leveraging our platform as a space to create and inspire, for our own unique voices and ethos, but also for our community. There are so many talented writers, thinkers, artists and storytellers in our communities with little, not enough or no access to platforms to tell their stories and share their ideas and work. The result of the zine is a lasting art collective that weaves together stories of winter and night, told through the vantage point of various mediums of artistic expression and prose.
