Orlando Zine Fest is back for its annual fete of local printed arts, but this time it’s upping sticks to Maitland.
The zine fair will be much the same, featuring an armada of area DIY print fiends hawking their inky and creative wares. But it’s happening at Blackbird Comics for the first time.
The shop has hosted a number of workshops and gatherings as an incubator for the next generation of funnybook fiends, but this is on a whole other level. Blackbird stays open late Saturday night with a special food and drink menu to fortify attendees and participants, who this year include SR50, 44:16, Illuminated Paths, Psych Cat, Confessed Lover, Fatal Entries, Is It Over Yet?, Richard Reep and Undead Press — along with scores more.
This is like Black Friday for small-press bibliophiles.
8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 14, Blackbird Comics & Coffeehouse, 500 E. Horatio Ave., Maitland, facebook.com/orlandozinefest, free.
