Brisbane Convention of Alternative Press
Get your zine on.
Overview
Like zines? Want to buy a whole heap, learn about new titles you haven't yet discovered, and just show your support for the folks that make them? If so, then you're going to want to go along to the first-ever Brisbane Convention of Alternative Press. Don't be put off by the fact that it's called a convention — this is an indie, alternative comic-con kind of deal, not something business-like and formal.
Basically, from 2pm on October 23 at The Zoo, BCAP will bring together a bunch of local zine makers and alternative comic artists, who'll all be selling their creative wares. Plus, they'll be chatting about them too. A 'Panel Talk at The Bar' is on the agenda, featuring a few of Brisbane's finest discussing the potential of the medium.
Then, come 5pm, the mood will change ever-so-slightly — or the noise level, at least. That's when Mutanteer Premium and Amaringo will take to the stage and help you celebrating getting your zine on. Bring all of your pals, and hopefully this will become an annual shindig.
