Disability and Neurodiversity Zine Workshop (The Exchange)

Create a zine exploring lived experience, identity and storytelling in this free in-person workshop for Flinders students. Tuesday 20 October 2026 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm Level 0, The Hub, The Exchange, Bedford Park Campus Disabled and neurodivergent students are centred in this workshop, with all Flinders students welcome. No previous art, writing or zine-making experience is required. These workshops grew from a student idea about reclaiming paper as a space for disabled people to tell their own stories. Sudhashree, the student behind the project, wrote: “As a person with disability, the only time you see a piece of paper is something another person has written about you. This is a way to reclaim that.” The workshop will be facilitated by Dr KJ Hepworth, aka Neuroqueero, with a disability justice-informed approach that centres empowerment, accessibility, choice and care. You’ll be able to write, draw, cut, paste, collage and experiment with zine-making in whatever way works for you. You choose what you create, how personal it is and what you share. Materials will be provided, along with refreshments and catering.
