Call for tablers in Chicago!
Table at the 2026 Zine Pavilion in Chicago!
The Zine Pavilion is a space on the exhibit floor at the American Library Association’s annual conference to display zines, meet zine librarians, and talk about how zines and libraries are a great pair. It’s like a mini zine fair at the largest gathering of librarians in the world, with over 12,000 attendees, including librarians, archivists, writers, publishers, and guest speakers. This year’s conference will be held June 26 to June 29 in Chicago at the McCormick Place Convention Center.
We’re looking for zine makers, distros, and zine libraries who would like to table at the Zine Pavilion. The Zine Pavilion will be held at the conference exhibit hall, which is open these hours:
Friday, June 26 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm
Saturday, June 27 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Sunday, June 28 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Monday, June 29 9:00 am – 12:30 pm
Tablers can table for a few hours on one day or up to all four days. Tables are free, but space is limited. Priority will be given to local zinesters.
If you’re interested in tabling, please fill out the form above. We will take applications through the end of April and will let everyone know whether they’ve been accepted the first week of May.
Thank you!
