Cut, Paste, Print: Zine Fair At The Library

Ahoy zinesters!

The State Library and Archives of Tasmania is holding a Zine Fair as part of Tasmania Reads. The fair will celebrate the creativity, history, and community of zine-making in Tasmania and beyond.

Zines are a democratic and inclusive radical form of grassroots publishing.

Zines are self-published, often handmade magazine or pamphlets, and they collapse traditional hierarchies in art and publishing. Anyone can make one.

In Tasmania, zines have been created and distributed for around thirty years, and the State Library and Archives of Tasmania holds an important collection documenting this history.

As part of the Zine Fair, selected items from the Library’s zine collection will be showcased, connecting past and present zine-making.
