If you’re in Toronto, make sure to come by Canzine on Sunday and support independent publishing!
If you haven’t been before, Canzine is an independent press extravaganza with more than 150 zines from across Canada. The event runs from 1 to 7 p.m. at the Gladstone Hotel (here are directions to the event). Admission is only $5.
And besides stocking up on zines, comics (and, of course, issues of Shameless), there are great events happening all day throughout the building. Here are some details from the Broken Pencil website:
Featuring Ghost Stories at the Canzine Camp Fire, all day Indie Horror Videos, and our Cheap Thrills Special Effects exhibit. Also: Canzine Gorefest! Take the Canzine workshop on do-it-yourself gore, then ham up your fake black eye, bloody lip and severed hand at our “Cheap Thrills Special Effects Exhibit”. Plus: All day indie horror movies in the Canzine screening room.
The Canzine Whodunit
Help! Someone’s killing local zinesters, picking them off one by one like ripe grapes plucked from the vine! Can you solve the crime and stop the serial destruction of our indie culture? This year, for the first time ever, Canzine will present an all day murder mystery game going on all over the Gladstone! Join the game and solve the crime or just watch the antics.
So if you’re there, stop by and say hello, pick up a button, get the new issue (and back issues) and take advantage of our great subscription deals.
