Five things to do this weekend: Aug. 16-17

The Boston Hassle media organization plans to make an annual event out of this day of workshops, skill shares and tables of zines and merchandise staffed by the people who made them. Presenters include the Papercut Zine Library, Trifecta Editions, Brian Connolly of Nothing Mattress and poster artist and printer Zoárd Wells Tyeklár. A team of the Hassle’s “Zine Queens” will give newcomers a How-to-Make-a-Zine workshop throughout the day. Email CompassArtBlast@gmail.com with questions or look here for information.
