Reimagine the future of zines and zine fairs.

This May, unpack the future of zines and zine fairs in a post-pandemic world as you join a participatory panel discussion reflecting on how zines bring us together to share stories.

Having largely defied digital trends, zines remain a vital medium that connects people. How will issues like ongoing isolation, disconnection, anxiety and socio-economic disparities shape zines in the coming years?

As part of this event, a new zine will be launched titled Some possible zine futures, featuring the voices of over 10 Australian zine-makers reflecting on the future of zines.

Panellists to be announced shortly.

Presented as part of Sydney Writers Festival 2021.
