Carlisle Zine Fest 2026
CARLISLE ZINE FEST IS RETURNING 📢
As a little nod to all the hard work both @autumn.illustration and her husband have put in to getting CARLISLE ZINE FEST off the ground >•••
Here’s our poster for the next Zine fest featuring Jess’ artwork of her husband Jonny 🖤
Jess + Jonny went to York Zine Fest on their first date and the rest is history. Someone should probably make a Zine about that.
Join us on *Saturday 18 April 11-4* at Tullie for ZINE stalls, ZINE workshops + more!
Support local creatives, makers, writers + thinkers, hang out, come by yourself or bring a date like Jess.
WANT TO SELL YOUR ZINES + ART? ➰〰️⚫️🗯️
Information about how to do that + more info. about the day in @tullieproducers BIO 🔗 or Tullie.org.uk
Or as a shortcut ✂️ Email community@tullie.org.uk to request a half table (£10) or a full table (£20) using subject line ‘Carlisle Zine Fest’ + your name, insta handle or photos of your work + a sentence about what you’d like to sell.
***Sign up by 16 MARCH***
Remember > Zines can be hand drawn / written or collaged + photocopied at low cost … they don’t need to be masterpieces or professionally printed – they just need to share something cool, original, educational or entertaining.
So if you have ideas / you’re thinking about it – DO IT 🗯️ You can even share a table with a friend if you don’t have lots to sell.
Please save the date if this is your thing + help us to spread the word 💘
