Fanzine: an exhibition and zine by Girl Gang Leeds

14th September 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

FREE

We’re launching our brand new zine – it’s a fanzine about fans!

This exhibition will feature the amazing artists we’re showcasing in our zine, and will be your first chance to buy it.

✨FREE ENTRY – EVERYONE WELCOME✨

We’re celebrating, talking about and featuring ideas about:

– Our experiences as women/non-binary/gender non-conforming superfans
– Having your legitimacy as a fan questioned due to your femme/nb identity
– Being labelled a ‘fangirl’
– What it means to be a fan
– Unapologetic fandoms
– Negative experiences of superfan culture
– Positive experiences of superfan culture
– Why it’s important to emphatically support the things you love.

Come down to our exhibition space in Headingley to get your hands on a new zine and support some local artists ♥

This is a joint project between all our girl gangs! We’ve taken submissions from Leeds / Manchester / Sheffield / Edinburgh and beyond.
