PHX Zine Fest

PHX Zine Fest The 9th annual PHX Zine Fest is Oct 24-26 at Rocket Space Gallery! Arizona has a lot of creativity to offer and Phx Zine Fest provides the space to show it off!

Phx Zine Fest is an annual gathering for DIY Small Press enthusiasts who create and enjoy zines, indie comics, photography books, perzines, political pamphlets and the like. The mission of Phx Zine Fest is to encourage local creators to share their unique ideas and perspectives, often ones that are underrepresented in mainstream media. This mission is more important than ever, as many media outlet

s prioritize divisiveness over giving voice to historically silenced groups. PZF welcomes everyone to join in on the excitement of DIY publishing, and especially strives to create safe spaces for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ creators and visitors.

Introducing our PZF '25 Sponsor: Wasted Ink Zine Distro

"Wasted Ink is a distribution center for zines, resources/info, and funds in Phoenix, AZ that provides international distribution, printing services, the annual PHX Zine Fest, and an extensive zine library - all dedicated to uplifting voices of historically marginalized creators who are Black, Indigenous, People of Color, LGBTQIA+, disabled, chronically ill, or neurodivergent.
Self-publishing has always been a form of resistance and subversion, allowing writers and artists to speak directly to their lived experiences while shaping their culture. Wasted Ink aims to honor this tradition and support as many zinesters as possible in utilizing the freedom of the press.
Wasted Ink collaborates in community with SATURNHEX and Shut Eye Press at Paper Jam + Print. In 2025, Wasted Ink expanded into a larger location on McDowell Road!"
