Moorabool Youth Services is holding a special afternoon tea to celebrate the launch of its inaugural Youth ZINE on March 15.
Youth ZINE is a self-published booklet produced twice a year that represents the voices and experiences of young people in Moorabool through their creative interests and passions.
This is done through poetry, short stories, photography, acrylic art, digital art and sketches – all put together in a colourful publication.
This edition six young creators contributed to the booklet, and it was edited and supported by the youth services team at Council – but council hopes that in future volumes, young people will have a more active role in editing, layout design and general direction of the messaging behind the ZINE.
Moorabool mayor Ally Munari congratulated the six young people involved in publication.
“They have shown great creativity and passion for the project,” she said.
“I look forward to seeing the publication become a regular feature of the work facilitated by our talented youth services team.”
The Youth ZINE Launch will take place on Friday, March 15, from 4pm to 5.30pm in the James Young room at the Lerderderg Library.
