OC Zine Fest

The Orange County Zine Fest returns to the Anaheim Central Library featuring a day with dozens of zine creators, panel discussions, speakers, and workshops celebrating self-expression and DIY culture.

History of OC Zine Fest
In 2017, the Orange County Zine Fest began partnering with Anaheim Public Library (Anaheim, CA). This partnership enabled OCZF to host zinesters without charging tabling fees in an environment that supports literacy and free speech.

Each year, participating zinesters are asked to donate copies of their zines to build Anaheim Public Library’s zine collection, showcasing and preserving the work of local creators. Anaheim Public Library’s zine collection is the first and only collection that allows library cardholders to check out zines for free.
