CALL FOR ZINE SUBMISSIONS to tour Eastern Canada!

Our friend Ryan at Methinks Presents, which runs the gallery Project 165 in Kensington Market, has organized a traveling art show, called We Made a Deal with the Devil that will tour between Toronto and Halifax in August. The show has a zine component, and Ryan is looking for zines to be included in the tour!

If you have multiple copies of a zine you would like to see distributed across Eastern Canada, please get in touch with us or with Ryan. Our email address is torontozinelibrary@hotmail.com or Ryan can be reached at methinkspresents@gmail.com. Any zines left at the end of the tour will be shared between the Toronto Zine Library and Project 165.

call for submissions

Submit to Sum Zine No. 1, Please

Sum Zine No. 1 is to be an art-lit-zine published by Something Collective, a small Toronto-based writing group.

Members are playwrights/actors/writers/editors/crafters. There are three of us. We are creative collaborators who have each done something to claim these titles and who aspire to do more, independently and together and with others.

Sum Zine will be the composite of our efforts and yours – an equation in which 'x' stands in for what is not yet known (this call is for submissions to our first issue!) and what is to be multiplied.

If you create something we can duplicate -- comix, poetry, publishable spoken word, illustration, literary fiction, chick lit noir, photography, experimental theatre, whatever – please submit.

This is a zine with no theme and no limits, with the exception of this: please submit no more than 5 pages.

Please include a brief bio, your coordinates and the name under which you wish to be published.

Editorial decisions will be collective.

Every single copy of our zine will be idiosyncratic--hand-stitched books crafted with glue, collages of text and images, odds and sods, yarn, string, or buttons --so we may need to edit submissions. Edits will be judicious and collaborative, made with submitting artists. As we will be producing a 'first run' of only a few zines, contributing artists will be sent a scan of the handcrafted book.

Please send submissions to sumzine@gmail.com by March 1, 2007.
