TARBLE-TO-GO

Embracing its founding mission to “bring arts to the people” both at the Tarble and wherever they are, the Tarble presents Tarble-to-Go—a series of free activity kits that foster curiosity, creativity, and community care.

Make a Zine

Tarble-to-Go: Make a Zine

To support the development of the Tarble Design Lab zine library, this DIY kit provides everything needed to create an eight-page mini zine from a single sheet of paper. The only thing missing is a topic and the fiery passion to be heard!

What is a zine? Zines (pronounced ZEENS) are self-published, often handmade, small-circulation magazines or booklets that usually focus on a specific topic or theme. Zines can cover but are not limited to various subjects, including art, music, politics, and personal experiences.

All levels of makers are welcome, and kits include all the needed materials.

Kits are currently unavailable.

Sound & Sketch

Tarble-to-Go: Sound & Sketch

Developed in collaboration with José Guadalupe Garza, Museum Academic Programs Coordinator at the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum in St. Louis—this free all-ages art activity kit is inspired by the Fall 2023 exhibition "Who Speaks for the Oceans?"

All levels of makers are welcome, and kits include all the needed materials.

Kits are currently unavailable.
