I’m going to be a bit unconventional and post about 2009 Traverse events out of chronological order – as you can see from the events page, there are a couple of activities planned for next year before the exciting Canberra Zine Fair. I’m doing this because I want to give people as much lead time as possible to get cracking on their zines.

Here are the details:

Canberra Zine Fair as part of SCRIBBLE: young writers, young readers festival
7 February 2009
Q2 Foyer
Gorman House Arts Centre
Ainslie Avenue, Braddon

Times are unconfirmed at the moment, but it’s most likely they’ll be like this year’s – i.e. doors open 9.30am and it wraps up in the early evening.

It’s entirely free to come a sell/trade your work (and we’re encouraging not just zinesters to be there – anyone who’s into self-publishing, DIY and etsy are welcome) but if you don’t have your own table the ACT Writers Centre are renting trestle tables at $10 per table (fits three people comfortably), payable on the day. Chairs will be free and plentiful.

Please send me a quick email if you’d like to book a spot!

There’s also a facebook event if you want to check out who’s going to be there (or at least claiming to be).

Just letting you know I’ve added an events page so you can keep track of what’s happening through 2009. I’ll be posting much more about each event on the blog in the coming months – stay tuned!
