Sage Pantony (they/them) is a writer, educator, workshop facilitator, zinester, and zine researcher. They have been making zines since 2019 that have been featured in bookstores, libraries, fairs, and university curricula. They facilitate workshops such as “The Educational Power of Zines: A Zine 101 Workshop With an Overview on Zines in Education and Research.”
Sage recently completed an MA in Educational Studies at Concordia University. They wrote their final paper on how zines, as accessible popular education tools, can be used by adult learners outside of formal education to 1) empower themselves and others, 2) build communities and facilitate dialogue, and 3) engage in activism and praxis.
Sage’s work covers topics like education, activism, gender, sexuality, mental health, trauma, and creativity. They currently reside in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal with their partner and cats. You can check out their zines in their online shop or follow them on Bluesky.
Note: Sage does not use generative AI in their work. Their words are their own. They write and create everything themselves. Further, when they draw on other people’s work, they always cite them.
