Biggest Little Zine Fair
BLZF is a pop-up all-ages zine market where artists submit their work to be showcased and sold— no need to be there in person! Our small team of organizers runs the event, handling everything from setup to sales, and all proceeds (after credit card fees) go directly to the makers. Beyond the market, we also host free workshops and community events celebrating zine culture, fostering creativity, and bringing zinemakers together.BLZF celebrates unique, handmade zines that uplift diverse voices, social justice, local creators, niche interests, and DIY culture. We do not accept zines that promote hate, oppression, or discrimination.Our goal is to make publishing and selling easy, no matter your experience level.
