MIMAZINA
MIMAZINA is a digital community journal, developed with artist group Foundation Press, that brings together the voices of the communities we serve. Columns cover a range of subjects and activities, from local history, to nature and ecology, and making activities. MIMAZINA profiles the North East’s cultural scene and shares insights into the Middlesbrough Collection. Contributions are written by readers, those engaged with MIMA’s community programme, and members of the MIMA team.
MIMA is known for its deep engagement with communities and for working in partnership to support people to develop creative lives. MIMAZINA is about dialogue and exchange; it’s designed to be like a digital notice board or village magazine.
Foundation Press are a collaborative artist group making projects experimenting with publishing, printing and collaboration. They create spaces where different conversations and voices can be heard and published.
MIMAZINA has been running since April 2020. You can read all back issues here:
