We're so excited to share “Her Hair Stories - a Salon Study” zine we worked on with the Adolescent Literacy Program at the @girlsclubny.
We worked with the Girls Club to curate a reading list for their avid readers (similar to our 2021 summer book club list) and while curating this list, we (once again) saw a gap in publishing and finished the program with a writing workshop + created a zine filled with the girls' own stories on hair and identity.
To share books on hair with the Girls Club and then turn their own stories on hair into a zine that will always live in our library shelves is a dream come true. We celebrated with a launch at Salon and invited the girls to read for their peers and family members + gifted them goodie bags (thanks @shopbabytress) + enjoyed hair-shaped cookies made by the culinary chef at Girls Club 💞
