We’re off to Leeds on Saturday 13th November to celbrate 10 years of the Footprint printers workers cooperative. We printed some ‘Best Cut‘ and ‘Kick It‘ posters there recently so we’ll bring some along with us. See you there…

The presses at Footprint Workers Co-op have been churning out campaign materials, radical publications, newsletters, gig posters, zines and books for TEN YEARS.

We’re proud of all the amazing projects we’ve been able to support over the years with our printing services, everything from travel zines to radical action on climate change, from shiny annual reports to grungy diaries.

To celebrate we’re having a party and hosting a zines and campaigns fair and organising a tree planting weekend for our 10th Anniversary celebration of cooperation, resistance, DiY culture and self publishing.
The Zine, Campaigns & Other Stuff Fair – 13 November 2010

We’re inviting all our customers from around the country, fellow co-operators and other projects and publishers we want to promote, to hold a stall at the zine and campaigns fair to show everyone what they’re up to and to sell their work.

Zine and Campaigns Fair: Leeds University Union (tell us you are coming on facebook)

Not sure there’s any more stall space unless you’re really, really tiny or really, really unmissable, but there might be workshop space, or you could roam round with a portable stall…

Leeds University Union, 11am – 5pm
The 10th Birthday Party – 13 November 2010

After the zine fair we’ll be continuing into the night with 10th birthday food, jelly & custard, slam poets, bands and djs:
