We had such a lovely time at the Desert Botanical Garden's Pride Night! We set up a mini zine make and take station and saw friends and made new ones too! We talked to over 150 people about zines and made some with folks too! What fun

Friday was the opening of Five15Art's summer invitational show titled "MELT" and I submitted a quilted artwork "Within Cells Interlinked." It's such an honor to have my art next to works by 70 other local artists! Check it out if you're in PHX 💜

@kikivalken.bsky.social @hennbird.bsky.social Arizona Queer Archives just dropped info on their new fest! ✨
Does anyone remember our first location in 2015? We ended up getting evicted so the building could be leveled to make way for a QT gas station and car wash. This little room is where it all started and we all sat on the floor discussing such big ideas ✨
Students from the Metro Arts Art History Class visited the distro for a field trip! They're making zines in class. They gained inspiration and took some zine goodies home! We love having students visit our shop for field trips or on their own! The youth are always welcome at Wasted Ink.
