Come down to The Free House (95 Collingwood Street, Nelson 7010), hang out with local zinesters, make some zines, find out what a zine is, and pick up a zine-making kit. We’ll also be there to support anyone who wants to sign up for ZineFest Nelson to show and sell their zines.
Expect a friendly, supportive atmosphere, with glue, scissors, staplers and other DIY craft supplies available for zine-making, plus chips for the table! Bring along any zines you’re working on, or arrive empty-handed and start making straight away. Enjoy a relaxed Sunday afternoon with the ZineFest Nelson crew. Drop in any time between 3 and 5pm.
