Help L.A Zine Fest Become a Reality!!!

[Open-Minded Press]

Hi!

  I am writing from a group of ladies who are organizing a Los Angeles Zine Fest in early 2012. We want to have a FREE event with 60-70 vendors from all over the country (and world even!) participate to celebrate zines in a way that Los Angeles hasn't embraced, on a large scale, in quite a while. We have entered a contest that will fund the idea with the most votes with a $2,500 prize and we need your help! 

If you'd like to support zine culture and community by helping us create a fest in Los Angeles, here's what you can do:

1) Click here http://goodla.maker.good.i s/projects/lazinefest
2) Enter your email, make up a username and password 
3) Click Sign Up to vote

If we win and get this money, we will be using it to: Making a FREE event, secure a venue for the Fest, rent tables and chairs for vendors, make sure we have insurance and security (if needed), screenprint posters and t-shirts, organize zine readings and bands to play either at the fest or around town to celebrate the fest, promote the fest, print our guide to L.A zine for fest go-ers. This is going to be awesome and we'd love the support!

 

You can visit us at www.lazinefest.com and email us at [e-mail] with any questions, ideas, and inquiries. Thank you for reading!

Good luck getting it going!  I signed up and voted!  We're currently getting a zinefest going here in Albuquerque!  (http://www.kickstarter.com/profile/abqzinefest)  Y'all should come out to ours, then in the spring we'll come out to yours!  LA and ABQ aren't that far, you could drive it in a day!  Plus, if you make it out to ours, you can promote yours!
