SPF’23 Exhibitors
SPF brings together a diverse cross-section of local artists, independent publishers and regional small presses to exhibit, share and trade creations in print, book and zine. We've broken down exhibitors into two sections:
Beach Front | the best real estate at the fair. Perfect for independent publishers, small presses, universities, collections and other institutional exhibitors. These double-wide spaces include a large table, 2 chairs and premo placement in a 10 x 6 ft area.
Zine Dunes | a gritty concentration of zine energy. Perfect for individual artists, printers, collectives and small organizations. These spaces are about 6 x 4 ft and are byo-table and chair.
