Aurtistic Zine is a DSTL Arts publication focused on acceptance and showcasing the diverse talents of autistic individuals as well as their family members. With this zine we hope to provide a platform that highlights the strengths of the autism community. We want to show the individual as a whole person and not just a missing piece to a puzzle.

For Aurtistic Zine; Volume 3, Issue 1, our theme was "Connect/Disconnect," and we asked contributors to share the ways in which they have been connecting, disconnecting, and even reconnecting with family, friends, and themselves through the chaos created by the COVID-19 Pandemic. The results are a collection of creative works showcasing the strength and kindness of each artist.
