Keep a look out for these libraries

The mini Zine library project (brain child of multi disciplinary artist adam lewczuk AKA 085c3n3) inaugural iteration was tested and presented at the Little Festival Newcastle in October 2022. The project aimed to encourage festival attendees to discover the mysterious world of artist zines, whilst exploring the nooks and crannies of Newcastle’s CBD.

On Saturday 15th April 2023, 4 hand made mini zine libraries (20cm (h) x 11cm (w) x 8cm (d) will be placed along High street (between Lee and James street) Maitland, each mini library featuring an unique design .

The mini libraries will be released into the wilds of downtown Maitland for punters to discover randomly or as a part of the mini ZINE library trail

(map below).

Each mini library contains limited edition art zines by 085c3n3 including the latest issues of SHOCKER (part II), to read or take.

Local zinesters are encouraged to leave their own zines during the festival in the libraries
