Beyond the Margins is a bold new youth-led zine project by Comics Youth CIC, supporting young people to share their voices and experiences through creative self-publishing.
This project is about more than just making zines. It’s about:
✨ Telling your story on your own terms
✨ Building confidence and creative skills
✨ Creating change through radical art
✨ Getting commissioned and paid to make your own zine!
Whether you’ve never made a zine before or you’ve been making art for years, Beyond the Margins is a space where your creativity is valued.
