Leeds Met Contemporary Art and Graphic Design

...will be at the fair! We're very excited for their arrival because we know of a couple of the students' works already and it's very good. Ventral is Golden no less and White White Brown Twig! Long time stock favourite of Good Grief. Sure there will be lots to gorge over. Expect this kind of thing and more...











See more of the Leeds Metropolitan Contemporary Art and Graphic Design course here


And thus concludes our pre-fair blogging. All the stallholders are now on here, have a look down through the entries and come see the real thing tomorrow 11am - 6pm!

We'll be tweeting it through the day with pictures and stuff so check out the Salford Zine Fair twitter

Royal-Tea Cafe

Drinking in the latest top of the range printed matter can be thirsty work, this we know. And so, alongside the zine fair tomorrow (!!) there will be a Royal-Tea Cafe!

God bless the Queen Mum.

Laura and Megan are busy baking and readying the Royal-Tea Cafe - they'll be serving homemade cakes and scones with a distinctively royal feel. There'll be tea and coffee too. We've had a royal leak about which cakes are invited and they include Queen Victoria Sponge, Flapjack a la Fergie, Prince Harry's Ginger bread, Lord Litchfield lemon cake.  Whoop!

Alongside the edibles and drinkables, there will also be a limited selection of Mr.PS tea towels available for purchase, including a tongue-in-cheek Royal Wedding Breakfast souvenir.

Much encouraged! See you tomorrow

Bare Bones

Our illustrator eagle eye, Robert, has managed to procure a small pile of copies of the latest Bare Bones newspaper-format free zine. Coming from the same stable as Le Gun, if you've not seen an issue of Bare Bones, it's of a similarly high quality. That is to say, it's wicked. Get there fast on Saturday to bag a copy!





Check out the Le Gun guys here

OWT Creative

We've got that 5-piece prolific north-west zine outfit, OWT Creative, down for Salford Zine Fair. They're blazing a trail at the moment with monthly zine releases showcasing the design talent around right now. Up to issue 5 I believe, they'll certainly have a stack of a back catalogue for the fair.
