Gathered in this zine is the writing and artwork created by participants of DSTL Arts's Conchas y Café creative writing classes for adults. Through poetry and short fiction, drawings, and photo composition, these workshops empower participants as the artists they are, helping them develop new skills in storytelling. The theme for Conchas y Café Zine; Volume 8, Issue 1: See My Words is "Voice." Through poetry and writings that explore the concept of "Artistic Voice" our writers experiment with various poetic devices, including persona, enjambment, juxtaposition, and more. More than read, you're invited to see these words.
