The Zine Fest Houston Records will also be on display at the event. The collection of zines (self-published, non-commercial booklets or magazines) and related ephemera documents regional and national zine culture. Preserved and made accessible by UH Special Collections, materials in the collection range from the 1980s to present, with a focus on art, feminism, LGBTQ issues, Latinx culture, and humor.

For more information on the event or the Zine Fest Houston Records, contact Lisa Cruces.
