Zine Craft and Hang
Join Bremerton Zine Fest and Makerhaus Manette for a drop in Zine Craft and Hang on Saturday July 11, 2026 from Noon-4:00pm.
​
Supplies Provided, all ages welcome (children must be accompanied by their human bean).
​
Come hang out in community with REAL people and make zines to be ready for the return of Bremerton Zine Fest in August.
​
Makerhaus is at 1132 Wheaton Wy, Bremerton
​
​
As a side note... I wanted to try and dispel something I hear a lot when I say I am partnering with Makerhaus...
"But they use AI art..."
​
They dont.
​
Camlyn is the NEW owner of Makerhaus- she and her family purchased the business and have an ACTUAL human bean they pay to design.
While the previous owner may have used AI- Makehaus does not. You can shop and have your art printed there guilt free. They are not contributing to the downfall of human made art and the planet.
Glad we had this talk.
