Recipes for Connection: Food Zine-Making Workshop

Living Hyphen is excited to partner with illustrator and arts facilitator Meegan Lim to bring you our very first zine-making workshop. Join us for a zine-making workshop exploring the intersection of food and art!

Food, art & literature are three things that naturally go hand in hand, at least according to Meegan Lim, illustrator and lover of all things food-related. If you're looking for a fun way to express your love for food, celebrate your cultural identity and connect with others, we hope to see you at our workshop exploring the intersection of food and art. Expect to share your favourite food memories and indulge in nostalgia before learning to create your own food zine and become a fellow food zinester.

No previous experience is required. All materials will be provided.

About Your Facilitator: Meegan Lim

Meegan Lim is a Brampton-based illustrator and arts facilitator striving to nurture community growth and healing through visual arts. Her work has been featured in Chatelaine, Eater, Broken Pencil Magazine and in the book, “What We Talk About When We Talk About Dumplings.” Meegan’s multi-disciplinary practice primarily focuses on the intersections of food and cultural identity manifesting through detailed gouache illustrations, digital paintings and risograph zines. By exploring her Malaysian-Chinese, first-generation experience, her zines MSG: The Craving for Cultural Embrace, Red Pocket Recipes, and award-winning Harvest Garden have been a launching pad for her practice. To her, zines are a form of therapy, connection and community, and she hopes to share this special medium with others around her!
