Zine Club Chicago Online: Zine Heroes Edition

7:30 p.m. CT Tuesday, August 22 on Zoom

Free!

Who are your zine heroes? This month, Zine Club Chicago is honoring the zinemakers we admire, those illustrious creators whose work most thrills and inspires us. Not all heroes wear capes, but ours might be wielding a long-arm stapler.

Grab your favorite zines made by your personal self-publishing icons, BYOS(nacks), and join us on Zoom for Zine Club Chicago Online: Zine Heroes Edition at 7:30 p.m. CT Tuesday, August 22!

** RSVP required ** We want to make sure that our online Zine Club Chicago events are a safe space, so we won’t be releasing the Zoom link publicly. If you’d like to attend, please email zineclubchicago@gmail.com to RSVP by 9 p.m. CT Monday, August 21 (the evening before our event). We’ll email you the Zoom link by 5 p.m. CT Tuesday, Aug. 22.

Zine newbies and longtime enthusiasts alike are always welcome at Zine Club Chicago, the city’s only book club-style event for people who read zines. This free monthly series is produced by Cynthia E. Hanifin and sponsored by Quimby’s Bookstore. Anna Jo Beck designs our monthly flyers, created our logo, and made our Zine Club Chicago Shout-Outs site, where folks can peruse and recommend zines we’ve discussed at our events: https://zineclubchicagoshoutouts.spread.name/
