Madison Print & Resist
Madison Print and Resist Zine Fest is a day-long festival of zines, experimental publications, print media, and prints related to the world of art, do-it-yourself culture, and political action. The festival has happened annually in collaboration with The Bubbler at Madison Central Library since 2013. The event brings together subversively creative print/media artists including zine makers, printers, poster-makers, and other self-published artists and writers to share their work with the Madison area community.
