Starting May 2020, Greater Princeton AYLUS (GPA) supports Plainsboro Public Library in making an online magazine for teens during the COVID-19 home isolation: The Teen Quaranzine.
Plainsboro Public Library is to publish The Teen Quaranzine twice a month. Each issue focuses on the various aspects of quarantine life and how it affects every one of us. In the Adaptation issue (May 2nd, 2020), GPA members painted a blue jay with a mask to show how we are adapting to this fresh way of life. In the Boredom issue (May 16th, 2020), GPA members presented their artistic anti-boredom ideas – Coping with Boredom pictures. they brought the vision of boredom creatively with a photo of “It’s All Good”.
By supporting the library teen’s program The Teen Quaranzine, GPA members helped teens to dispel any COVID-19 blues and reconnect with friends. The volunteers hope to show the unique perspectives on isolation in these unprecedented times.
Participants: Amber Yu (May 2, 1 hour; May 16, 2 hours), Donna Nagorny (May 16, 8 hours).
