BCZF

Farewell and thank you from BCZF! After 8 brilliant years of Bristol Comic & Zine Fair, we have decided to call it a day. Thank you to everyone who has been involved over the years - Organisers, volunteers, exhibitors, attendees and venues. bczf.co.uk 😘

We're so excited to host @QueerZineLib on March 8th! Come browse to yr heart's content in the main room of @exchangebristol 11am-4pm. QZL will be giving a presentation about their work & we've even got a zine making workshop led by @shuphbun in the afternoon! See FB for deets 👇

Have you followed @BSP_fair yet? 🤹‍♀️

Send your submissions in for Comparatively Weaker this week to brumzinefest@gmail.com - celebrating rejected ideas and failed projects. We'd love to include your wonky work or underappreciated ideas. If you need longer than tomorrow's deadline just holler! bit.ly/weakzine

Your daily reminder to follow @BSP_fair ✅

Did you enjoy #bczf ? Are you sad that it has ended? If so, you’d do well to follow these folks >> @BSP_fair << Looking forward to seeing the exciting things they are working on!

✨ watch this space, earthlings ✨

We invite your unsuccessful, underappreciated, under-resourced, underdeveloped submissions to a special zine celebrating rejected ideas + failed projects inspired by our arts council decision letter. You'll receive copies of the zine, thanks & a small fee: bit.ly/weakzine

🤩🗣️ We're raising money to secure a permanent home in Glasgow. Can you spare £1 or an RT to help us achieve our goal? There's some awesome rewards on offer for all backers & you could help foster our kind, creative, zine-making-machine for years to come! bit.ly/AHomeForGZL

Stallholder applications are open for this year's festival. We were incredibly lucky to meet and host so many dreamy makers last year, and would love to hear from you if you fancy a stall at our next event on Saturday 6th July. Full details and form here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

@Good_Comics Thank you!x

Following the announcement that Bristol Comic and Zine Fair (@zinescomics ) won't be returning, Rozi reflects on our experiences at one of the best show around. Farewell, BCZF goodcomics.co.uk/blog/farewell-…

@AndyWPOliver @brokenfrontier Thank you Andy xx

Shoutout to TWO new publication events in #cardiff @ComicsCarnival and @CardiffIndieAr1 happening soon! #zines #comics 🙌

My tweet earlier was a bit too 'I'm so gutted about this', which I am, of course. But this piece by @AndyWPOliver sums it all up better - "thank you BCZF! You set the standard for independent fairs and you will be very, very much missed by us all." 💙💙💙

Open to never-made-a-zine and already-made-100-zines folks alike. Stoked to host a space @PMStudioUK for people to get making. There may well be conductive ink. Let us know if you’re coming either by commenting below or sending a DM.

Our programme will launch this week, but in the meantime, get excited for our annual zine fair! It's absolutely free to attend, and we've brought back our accessible hour from 11:00-12:00 each day for people who may need a bit more space or quiet. facebook.com/events/2528106…

Roll up, roll up, for all the fun of the comics fair! Cardiff Comics Carnival // Carnifal Comics Caerdydd comes to @10FeetTallCF on Sunday March 24th. Event info here: facebook.com/events/5551178… #comics #zines #illustration
