A note from Charissa
Thank you for supporting Wasted Ink in 2024! We've been happily busy providing workshops and programming, and printing and distributing zines in our new studio. Comparing the first two quarters of 2024 to 2023, we have increased our zine programming by 66% and more than doubled our unique participants bringing the total over 1,700. We've continued to steadily increase our zine distribution numbers year-over-year and have so far distributed over 1,600 zines this year. We've more than quadrupled our zine printing in the first six months of 2024 and have printed almost 4,000 zines! We've attended great events like the Northern Arizona Book Festival, Association of Writers and Writers Programs Conference (AWP), Tucson Zine Fest, LA Zine Fest, and the Zine Pavilion at the American Library Association Conference (ALA). Our Fall calendar is filling up with events and activities so be sure to schedule a zine workshop now for Fall and Spring. Thank you for your continued support and community care! - Charissa Lucille A look back at our six months of programming, distribution, printing, and publishing in 2023!
