 Zine Club Chicago ONLINE: FEAR Edition

7:30 p.m. Central Time Tuesday, October 27 on Zoom

Free!

What keeps you awake at night? This year, the specters that haunt Halloween time are competing with more palpable frights. At Zine Club Chicago Online: FEAR Edition, we’ll be discussing zines about what scares us, from ghouls and goblins to stolen elections and rampant viruses. We’ll also have some fun surprises for you all during our annual Hallowzine celebration! Costumes are highly encouraged for you and your zine pets.

Grab your favorite titles, BYOT(reats and/or Tricks) and join us on Zoom for a spooky good time!

** Zoom info ** We want to make sure that our online Zine Club events are a safe space, so we won’t be releasing the Zoom link and password publicly. If you’d like to attend, please email zineclubchicago@gmail.com to RSVP by 5 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27th. You’ll receive an e-mail from Zine Club Chicago with the Zoom link and password one hour before the event begins.

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 Chicago Zine Fest/Midwest Perzine Fest organizer Cynthia E. Hanifin and sponsored by Quimby’s Bookstore. Anna Jo Beck designs our monthly flyers, created our logo, and also made this awesome Zine Club Shoutout database of zines people talk about at Zine Club!
