Weekend Plans and New Years

Filed Under events, zine news | Leave a Comment

One upcoming event to share. If you are in Brooklyn this weekend, check out the Birdsong Benefit Show and Party on Saturday. A few words from the hosts: “The Benefit show is both to help ease the cost of producing so many pretty little zines and broadsheets every year and to get our podcast series off the ground. Every six weeks we’ll produce a new ‘radio programme’ that consists of an interview with a local artist, a reading from a local writer, and live sort-of “Peel session” with a local band, all available for free on the new website (beginning in December).”

The show will be held at the Silent Barn, 915 Wyckoff Ave off the Halsey L stop. Doors open at 8pm, show starts at 9pm, $5-10 dollars sliding scale.

Is it too early to start thinking about New Year’s resolutions? Of course not! We’ve got one for you: 2011: The Revenge of Print

Here’s what Quimby’s has to say about it: “We’re throwing a challenge out there with some of our friends. If you’ve ever made a zine or mini comic MAKE ONE MORE ISSUE. Come on, you’ve got one more in you! Maybe you were thinking in the back of your head you’d do another issue one day. Now is the time.? ?Join the 2011: Revenge of Print Facebook group for discussion and more plans.”
