Print isn’t dead, at least not in Sackville.

People who create DIY publications known as zines will be gathering this weekend for the Sackville Zine and Craft Fair.

Organizer Patrick Allaby says about a dozen vendors are expected to sell hand-made books and other items ranging from pottery to popsicles.

Allaby, who ran the SappyFest zine and craft fair for several years before the pandemic, is also a graphic novelist whose works will be available at the event this weekend. 

He spoke to CHMA about the event earlier this week:

The Sackville Zine and Craft Fair is happening Saturday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. at Struts Gallery. Face masks are mandatory at the event.
