Fanzine is having its second festival this fall, located in the Marguerite Duras Public Library in Paris, France. Fanzines and self-published books of all kinds from around the world will be gathered for this three-week event. It’s organized by Papier Gaché, an independent publishing house in France that publishes international zines to promote and support contemporary drawing and comics. Fanzine is one of the many festivals and small press expositions that Papier Gaché organizes and contributes to in France.

Fanzine runs from October 17th to November 4th. Although there are no longer any call for submissions this year, you can still try for next year. Submissions for Fanzine open around the spring time, so bookmark their homepage to watch for details.
