Canzine 2012: Call for Submissions

Canzine Toronto is coming up in October, and we are currently on the hunt for art room and workshop submissions. Details below:

Art Rooms:
During past Canzines, artists have turned rooms into forests, filled them with typewriter-playing musicians, conducted zine funerals and given lessons in crocheting breasts and testicles. This year Broken Pencil will continue the tradition and are currently looking for artists who would like to rent a room from which they can entertain the masses and sell their wares.

Art rooms are $75. You get a whole room to display your work, create a spectacle and to sell your creations.

Workshops:
If there’s something you would like to learn (or teach!) at Canzine, let us know.

If you would like to share your skills with the Canzine audience, send us your pitch detailing what you would teach, how you would teach it, why this is relevant to the Canzine attendees, and how long you think the workshop would take. If you do not necessarily want to teach something but would like to learn something specific at Canzine, let us know about that too.

Send proposals and ideas to Broken Pencil editor, Lindsay Gibb, at [email protected]. Send a detail of your plans and requirements with either the subject line “Canzine Art Room Proposal” or “Canzine Workshop Pitch.”

Deadline for proposals: July 1st

Canzine Toronto takes place October 21, 2012 at 918 Bathurst Cultural Centre and Canzine West will be in Vancouver on November 17th at W2 (111 West Hastings Street).  Stay tuned for table registration and programming announcements.
