The library is currently run by Steve Carlton and Elizabeth Murray Jones and aims to share creative self – published works.
The exhibition will be open for visitors to come and enjoy the zines on Sat 17th & Sun 18th and Sat 24th & Sun 25th May, between 10am and 4pm. Visitors can pick up and look at the works and we will be offering a ‘reading area’ within the space to sit and enjoy the zines.
Join us on Saturday 17th May when Steve and Liz will be running a FREE drop in zine making workshop where visitors can make their own zine and contribute to a special zine we’ll be making all about Darlington, which will be the latest edition to the library. No experience needed for the workshop and all materials will be provided. Visitors can bring along any photographs, images etc . . .to include int he zine if they wish.
