Zines and Comics

The Zines and Comics exhibit features projects created in Professor Maggie Simon's ENG 305 Maymester Women and Gender in Comics class. These zines and comics deal with feminism, Muslim stereotyping, the pandemic, and more. They take an innovative look at how zines and comics can communicate difficult topics with sincerity and earnestness.

"For Women and Gender in Comics students had the chance to make zines based on any topic important to them. Hand-made and shared by word-of-mouth rather than through conventional publishing, zines are often used to explore topics not discussed by traditional media, making them a good choice for exploring issues of gender, identity, and the important but overlooked experiences of daily life."-- Professor Margaret Simon, Associate Professor, Department of English

The works of Miranda Green, Zhihang Liu, Sara Park, Emily Reece, Lindsey Rosen, and Nicole Van Buren are featured.
