Cork Zine Fest (CZF) is back for 2025 and bigger than ever before! This year we will be taking part in a residency in the Triskel Sample Project Space from the 5th to the 30th of November. Partnering with Sample-Studios and the Crawford Art Gallery, we are excited to deliver a series of free workshops and events with community groups and the zine-making public throughout the month, concluding with a week long CZF Exhibition and Library showcase and our 2025 Cork Zine Fest Market on the 29th and 30th of November at the South Parish Community Center.
We are grateful to Sample-Studios and the Triskel Arts Centre for the residency opportunity and for giving CZF a home for November. We also want to thank our partner the Crawford Art Gallery for supporting the workshops. We look forward to working with CATU, TENI, Crawford Support Studio, Lonradh, Rainbow Library Writers and Illustrators, Follow Your Nose, East Cork Music Project, The Friends of the Crawford Gallery and Éist throughout the month.
You can find all events and details on our website corkzinefest.ie under the “Maker’s Month” tab. We will also be sharing on Instagram when we are in the Project space, so come in for any impromptu zine chats and making!
Full month programme calendar
Here is the full programme!!!!! You will see highlighted in green spikes our events that are open to the public, you can book tickets for them now through our website. The other workshops are specifically catered to some community groups and organisations and are only open to their members.
The residency space will be accessible during the Triskel opening times and we will try and be in there as much as possible throughout the month.
CZF Zine Library Showcase and Exhibition
Throughout our residency and from the series of public and community group workshops we are facilitating, each participant will be given the opportunity to showcase the zines they have made by adding a copy of their zine to the CZF Library Showcase and Exhibition.The exhibition will be celebrating the wide scope of zine making practices and how zines are a powerful medium to share ideas and build community.
Our last week of residency (25th-30th Nov), the Project Space will host our CZF Zine Library Showcase and Exhibition. During the week, we will have our CZF Resident Maker Oriane Duboz; visual artist, zine maker and photographer. Oriane was the organiser and producer of the first Cork Zine Fest in 2018 and we are excited to have her join CZF for the week while she works on a few of her current zine projects!
More information is coming soon about the programme of the Zine Fest itself (November 29th-30th), the market and talk happening over that weekend! Our lineup is reaaaally exciting :)
That’s all for now! Thank you for reading this far, sending you a lot of little air smooches.
