Why You Should Visit

A one-day fair where people sell the zines they have made themselves, each at their own small table. It is the Kobe edition of ZINE Fest, which also runs in Sendai, Shibuya, Osaka, Kichijoji and Nagano, held in the hall at KIITO. More than 220 makers had signed up by September 20, and the total may pass 250. The list of exhibitors is not published in advance, so the fun is in wandering the tables and finding something you like. A good outing if you enjoy small self-published books of writing, photos or illustration, or are thinking of making one yourself.
