Auckland Zinefest - 2 August


Self-published magazines expressing anything from the author’s creativity to their political leanings will be available en masse at Auckland Zinefest being held in St Kevin’s Arcade this week.  A non-profit community event the festival offers a zine market, zine-making workshops as well as an exhibition of Auckland City Library’s zine collection.

Underground comics, poetry journals and recycled books elaborately hand cut to produce layered art works are just some of the publication styles on offer.   A total of 30 stall holders will be participating on the night with DJ’s Rose Quartz providing ambient background sounds.  The festival combines with K’ Road’s late-night art event First Thursdays, providing a natural fit with it’s August theme of DIY.
