ZineFest 2024
WNY Book Arts Center and Just Buffalo Literary Center are excited to announce ZineFest 2024. Sponsored by Gutter Pop Comics, ZineFest will be held on all 3 floors of 468 Washington Street on Sunday, August 18th from 12pm-5pm. This event is free and open to the public.
At ZineFest, local zine-makers will gather to distribute, trade, & sell their creations. The two organizations invite attendees to get lost in a photocopied sea of zines, to conspire with fellow artists, and to peruse our pop-up zine library featuring local classics.
"Zines are such a crucial form of publishing: the immediacy, the lack of gatekeepers, the low costs, the hyperlocal, the genre-expansiveness. I'm so thrilled that Just Buffalo & Book Arts found a way to provide zinesters with this moment to celebrate our local zine culture and its history." - Robin Jordan, ZineFest organizer and Writing Center Director at Just Buffalo Literary Center.
Zines defy definition but here are some words you might see associated with them: handmade, self-published, DIY, underground, cheap, hyperlocal, radical, queer, feminist, photocopied, misspelled. Inside a zine you might find poems, comics, manifestos, recipes, collages, gardening advice, lyrics, & handy tips for your neighborhood activist.
