Announcing the 4th Annual NYC Anarchist Book Fair: April 17, 2010
Announcing the 4th Annual NYC Anarchist Book Fair
April 17, 2010
11am-7pm
Judson Memorial Church, 55 Washington Square South, Manhattan
New York City, a center of anarchist life, culture, struggle, and
ideas for 150 years, will host its 4th annual NYC Anarchist Book
Fair, a one-day exposition of books, zines, pamphlets, art,
film/video, and other cultural and very political productions of the
anarchist scene worldwide, on April 17, 2010, at Judson Memorial
Church in Manhattan. In addition there will be two days of panels,
presentations, workshops, and skillshares on April 17 and 18 to
provide further opportunities to learn more and share your own
experience and creativity.
The goal of the book fair is to enable people to connect with one
another as well as to provide broader access to the rich and varied
field of anarchist ideas and practices. Now is the perfect time to
be exploring those ideas and practices and bringing them into play in
our communities and the world.
We are calling for all anarchist publishers, zinesters,
film/videographers, artists and all members of the worldwide
anarchist community. Come meet local anarchists and others from all
over the globe looking to connect with other anarchists. Whether you
are an old anarchist with deep ties and knowledge or anarcho-curious
and looking to find out more about anarchy, the book fair is for you.
The 4th Annual Anarchist Book Fair is a place where the ideas,
activism, ethics, creativity and history of the contemporary
anarchist movement come together in an exciting weekend of community
and collaboration.
For more information about the NYC Anarchist Book Fair, please visit
our website at http://www.anarchistbookfair.net.
To contact the NYC Anarchist Book Fair Organizing Collective to
volunteer, make a donation, or get more information, email us at:
info[at]anarchistbookfair[dot]net.
To apply for a table or to propose a presentation, panel, workshop,
or skillshare, see the forms below or visit our website,
http://www.anarchistbookfair.net. Diversity is important to us: we
are committed to promoting voices typically underrepresented at
mainstream and activist conferences alike, whether for reasons of
race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, income or ability.
The Book Fair has adopted a policy of zero-tolerance for racist,
sexist, queer-phobic, and other disrespectful behavior that works
against collective liberation for all communities.
Food will be available ($), plus childcare (free). Judson Memorial
Church is a wheelchair accessible, smoke-free environment.
