Made with love!

The Ottawa Design Club presents its own printed zine!
About Our Zines

A printed extension of the community.

Ottawa Design Club zines are limited-run print publications that extend the conversations started at our events. Each issue is built around a theme and curated through an open call, bringing together artists from Ottawa and creative communities around the world. Designed as tactile objects, the zines are meant to be held, kept, and passed along.
