The 13th annual Small Press Zine Fair is at the Hobart Town Hall Ballroom thanks to a generous grant from the City of Hobart.
FREE ENTRY and all are welcome to come see 75+ stalls of do-it-yourself publications of all shapes, colours, sizes made by artists of all ages!
Zines (pronounced ZEENS) can be about anything at all, and once you see one you'll realise that you also can MAKE one yourself. Come and be inspired!
Bring Card+Cash (not everyone takes card).
We pay our respects to the Palawa/Pakana people of the island of Lutruwita who have been telling their stories for thousands of years. This event is held on the stolen and unceded land of the Muwinina people.
Art (and this year's poster, keep an eye out for it in September) by Kay Kudelka.
