Phx Zine Fest

Phx Zine Fest is an annual gathering, started in 2016, for DIY Small Press enthusiasts who create and enjoy zines, perzines, political pamphlets, indie comics, photo zines and the like. Arizona has a lot of creativity to offer and Phx Zine Fest provides the space to show it off! The mission of Phx Zine Fest is to encourage local creators to share their unique ideas and perspectives, often ones that are underrepresented in mainstream media. This mission is more important than ever, as many media outlets prioritize divisiveness over giving voice to historically silenced groups. Phx Zine Fest welcomes everyone to join in on the excitement of DIY publishing, and especially strives to create safer spaces for Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and LGBTQIA+ creators and visitors.
