I have very fond memories of Zine Camp in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Without sounding hyperbolic, the team behind the event redefined what a zine fest could be - refocussing on the making element (both zines and friends) and exploring, moving away from the traditional market format (they still had some stalls, but most of the space was shared workshop / making space). It brought people together from around Europe and beyond, all with the intention to share materials, stories and space. 2019 was its fifth anniversary. I hope it comes back, virtually, for 2020. Its community spirit is the perfect antidote to a lot of what we’re enduring right now. Photos by co-organiser & friend Florian Cramer.
