Aghh! Zine "Money" summer 2026

😁Tomorrow is our workshop part of Brighton Festival University of Sussex Festival of Ideas. Alongside Erin James, Danny Millum and Dr Samuel Solomon, we will explore the #archives and collections, discuss #grassroots media, the power that self-publishing has against censorship and make #zines!

✒️This collaborative piece is from one of the prompts at our last creative workshop. Participants had 3-5minutes to design their own currency, and this is the result.  💰If you could design your own currency, how will it look, feel, and what will be its value? #Zine #Collab #Prompt #Money

Nice Points, The Nice Currency by Sukriti 🥰 A mini zine created to show the guidelines on how to use this unique currency. You can give it to anyone to acknowledge kindness, and it can be exchanged for everything or nothing; it's up to you! Would you use it? Created at our last creative workshop
