SPAM Press (est. 2016): It is time for poetry to enter the post-internet age and SPAM Press wishes to take upon its shoulders the weight of this herculean enterprise. Operting as a pamphlet press, zine, online magazine, literary journal, DIY organiser and podcast, SPAM watches highbrow theory and pop culture make love in and against the oscillating stratospheres of late capitalism, while exploring literary weirdness, trash aesthetics and experimental critiques of our thoroughly mediated condition.
For recent insight into SPAM activities, check out this interview with Zona Motel: https://zonamotel.substack.com/p/profile-afk-reading-series-glasgow.

Access:
Due to the nature of our victorian pub, our venue is only easily wheelchair accessible on the ground floor only.
Arrangements may be made to help access the upstairs of the venue if organized in advance, though we are sorry to say we do not have any wheelchair-accessible toilets due to the age and layout of our grade 2 listed building.
