Join zine publisher Paul Armentano and University of Maryland archivist and curator John Davis for a panel that explores the historical impact and cultural significance of zines! Panelists will discuss the crucial role zines played in promoting communication and awareness among bands and their fans, and how zine networks laid the foundation for the rise of underground music scenes, as well as other subcultures. The modern zine resurgence will also be examined, and how zines are able to thrive in an era of electronic media. Come and learn about the vibrant world of DIY zines - self-published, underground magazines that bypassed media gatekeepers.
