Abstract: We construct differential graded enhancements of the zigzag algebras which were used by Khovanov, Seidel and Thomas to produce categorical braid group actions. These enhancements are related to $p$-differential graded structures by a version of Koszul duality. We prove that the minimal model $A_{i}nfty$-structure on the zigzag algebras is {em not} formal. We construct a braid group action in this setting and suggest a symplectic interpretation.
