A casual gathering in the cafe space to formally launch Smith’s Zine Library 🥳

An open invite to contribute to the library!

Bring your zines to show & tell, connect with other creators and enthusiasts.

Stay tuned for our soon to launch monthly zine jam 🎨

In association with Canberra Zine Emporium.

A zine is self-published print media of any description; imagery, poetry, articles, collage, anything! No barriers to entry and the best therapeutic fun. The monthly zine jam will be an opportunity to make, connect, sell, swap & exchange skills. Everyone welcome!

Tag & share 🩷💛💚
