PR: Zinelab Tomorrow and Future Zinelabs

We wanted to make sure everyone knew about tomorrow's Zine Lab at the Woodridge Library.  It's a casual space where zinesters can get together to work on projects.  Supplies are provided, and many of our zinefest organizers will be there.  In fact, many people met our organizing team and decided to join up at these events. The information is below:

We're also interested in holding zine labs in all 4 quadrants of DC, and we're looking for volunteers who can help us facilitate and spaces that would be happy to host (libraries have often been their location, but that doesn't mean they have to be the only place).  Reply if you want to participate or know a great place.

All our best,
DC Zinefest Organizers
