Teen Zine History Camp

New Mexico teens can explore history, make art, and create a zine in this free summer camp hosted by the New Mexico History Museum. Blending storytelling, hands on artmaking, and museum exploration, this innovative camp invites New Mexico teens ages 14 - 18 to dive into the museum’s most fascinating objects, stories, and spaces—and transform what they find into an original, DIY zine. Zines are self-published pamphlets that share writing, drawing, photos, collage, and other art, and are usually photocopied for distribution. Campers will create a teen designed zine "guidebook" that will be shared with future teen visitors to the museum, offering an insider's perspective on the must-see spots, hidden gems, and surprising histories found throughout the galleries. The result will be a playful, creative, and lasting contribution to how young people experience the museum for years to come. Teen Zine History Camp runs daily from 1 - 4:45 p.m. This is a structured, weeklong program and drop-in attendance is not available. Students must attend all days. Maximum of 15 students. Camp is FREE to New Mexico teens, but registration is required at https://forms.office.com/g/EY2y9gfBPn.
