Come along to Avebury House to learn more about the history of games, toys and sports in Ōtautahi Christchurch through an archaeology-inspired zine-making workshop.

This event showcases stories of leisure and recreation in the past through artefacts of sport and play that have been uncovered in Christchurch over the last decade.

These stories will be reimagined and retold through the twenty-first-century pastime of zine making, utilising art and creative practice to bring nineteenth-century leisure into the present day.

We will have artefacts on display, with an archaeologist available to answer all your questions while you get creative.

An art educator will also be on hand to help with techniques and designs, along with coloured papers, pens, pencils, crayons, rubbings and glue to make your very own history-inspired zine to take home with you.
