University of Houston-Clear Lake students, faculty and staff transformed from media consumers to media producers at a zine workshop with author and Lee College English instructor David Ensminger in April.
“Punk was about stirring culture from below with people who didn’t know they could participate in culture,” Ensminger said.
Communications student Ciara Suesberry helped create a group poster during the hands-on portion of the workshop, combining text and images from magazines with drawings and words.
“Don’t be afraid to be yourself and be different,” she said of the poster’s message, noting that the group wanted to communicate unity in troubled times. “Even when there is chaos, you can still come together.”
