From Foothill Radical Zinefair (instagram)
The Foothill Radical Zine Fair is being held from 11-6, Saturday, November 8th at the North San Juan Community Center, NorCal.
A free media fair to inspire & nurture radical ideas & action in the Sierra Foothills
We’re now just a few days until the zinefair! We’d like to remind everyone that while we’ve got a few ideas for discussions, please feel free to come and start your own, or lead your own workshop, or give your own impromptu skill share. We’ve scheduled a few things, but we won’t be sad if, as a collective, we decide to do something else. We want to create a space where there isn’t a divide between the givers and takers, teachers and students, zine makers and zine readers.
We’ll have all kinds of art and building supplies to make your things, make your own zines, and make new friends. We’re all in this together, so let’s work to make the zinefair incredible together. Bring absolutely anything you think might make it better, no matter how out there the idea is.
See you on Saturday! 🏴🚩

Like music? Hate fascism? Want to play your music to people who also hate fascism?
We’ve got an open stage all day long at the radical zine fair for absolutely anyone to play any kind of music they want. We’ve got some instruments to use, but please bring your own as well. And if someone’s already up there playing music, we’re more than welcoming to setting up somewhere else to play. The more music the better.
Let’s make the zine fair the best it could possibly be.

Youth Liberation Discussion at the Foothill Radical Zinefair!
Join young people for a youth led discussion on what youth liberation actually means. The discussion will be held at 1:00 and all are welcome to join.
If you have an idea for a workshop, discussion, skill share, etc the zine fair is the perfect place to host one. Tell us your ideas, or just come and do them it’s a radical zine fair after all.
