A zine is a small-circulation, self-published work, typically spanning 4-32 pages and often reproduced via a copy machine. Zines encompass a variety of categories, including comic books, poetry, literature, manifestos, music, and various other art forms.
Zine Fest Nelson aims to unite the local community in celebrating the rich history and ongoing relevance of zine culture. As a creative, inclusive, and DIY platform, the festival will offer artists, writers, and other creatives from Nelson and across New Zealand a chance to showcase their work, fostering networking, community, collaboration, and innovation.
To celebrate creative freedom and expression through the art of zine making. Zines, with its roots in the underground, have historically provided a powerful outlet for artists, marginalised voices and those outside mainstream media. As a tactile medium, zines allow creatives, musicians, performers, chiefs, poets, comic books writers and many others to share their messages through self-published distribution.
Zine Fest Nelson is generously sponsored by Nelson City Creative Communities Scheme. Which means this event is free to participate and it will also be free to attend.
