RTS Zines are to present a week of spectacular zine-related loveliness down at the Fishing Quarter Gallery on Brighton Beach next week.
RTS Zines are a small non-profit zine collective dedicated to putting the rose back into every spectacle and bringing zine makers together with zine lovers to do zine things, while laughing and ranting and doing things on stage.
Running from Tuesday 16 April – Saturday 20 April, the Gallery will be open for free every day for zine browsing, buying, swapping and socialising.
Head down and chat zines with the team, or just flick through them in silence if that’s more your thing.
The weekend culminates with a an afternoon Zine fair on Saturday 20th April at the gallery, and there will be an evening party from 7.00pm at The Black Dove in Kemptown, raising money for Thousand 4 £1000, Brighton Migrant Solidarity and The Jollof Café.
Copies of Aghh! Zine issue 01 and Issue 02 will be on sale at this pop-up.
