TRIPLE ZINE LAUNCH & DEBUT EXHIBITION,
SEPTEMBER 1 – 3, 2010
@ BLEEDING HEART GALLERY, Brisbane
“ZINES are independent little magazines published by people like you and me and completely devoted to the D-I-Y (Do-It-Yourself) ethics. They are very diverse, covering topics from music, art, politics, parenting, ethnicity, sexuality, class issues, religion, feminism and much more. In zines anybody can write about anything. Zines usually have a small circulation and are distributed at concerts, record stores, through friends, mail, distros…” ~borrowed from GrrrlZines.net
