What is a zine?

Short for "magazine", zines are self-published works created to share ideas, stories and artwork. From comics and illustrations to photography, poetry and creative writing, zines showcase original voices in imaginative ways.

Stall holders and workshops

Our 2027 program, including stall holders and workshops, will be announced closer to the event.
