Ongoing community project:
About a month ago, we put a call out for zine submissions in response to an image of a piece of ephemera from our collection - this hand-drawn map taken from the game The Quest:
The submissions came in, and we’ve published the first zine (we’re calling the series ephemerMAL) - you can find Vol. 1 on archive.org here: ephemerMAL zine Vol.1.
We’ve shared the next prompt, too - submissions are due June 30, keep them under 1000 words & PG, any writing style is welcome.
That’s all folks, more again soon!
