Thanks for attending the 2008 Portland Zine Symposium!
The 2008 Portland Zine Symposium is over and, wow, it was such a blast!The organizers would like to thank all attendees, tablers, volunteers, workshop/panel leaders, PSU, Red & Black Cafe, the bands, and donors for being apart of Portland Zine Symposium. Thanks to the help of everyone involved, we were able to have yet another year of zine socializing and community building, which is what PZS is all about.
Once sufficiently recuperated from this year's symposium, we will start working on 2009! We'll be working out the dates, art, and events for next year's PZS by December. We will also be having a meeting for those interested in volunteering around then. You can join the PZS google group here, to get general PZS updates sent directly to you!
We've had a couple things reported missing after the event.. If you found a black hoodie with a patch on one of the front pockets or a black and light-weight rain jacket , please email us so that we can get them to the owner. If you found or lost anything else, please send us an email!
We've got shirts, travel mugs made from corn plastic, stickers, and other merch leftover from PZS. If you're interested in buying any, please send us an email detailing your order and we can send you an invoice to pay us via paypal. Be on the lookout for a whole section to view and buy PZS merch to help support PZS!
