Chattanooga's Comix Co-Op is having a meet up at Infinity Flux focused on ZINES. "This week’s co-op meeting will be dedicated to those little books that help us express our weird thoughts; arouse firestorms; and allow us to be creatively uninhibited," officials said.

Sew What at the Library: "If you have some time in the afternoon, come hang out in the library's sewing lab and learn to use the sewing machines to help us make paper garland for the festival readers lounge," organizers said.

Drink n Draw with Aggie Toppins: the founder of the festival and zine library speaks about what influences her own experimental publishing projects for The Unofficial Press.

"If you're out and about at any of our community events or see a fest poster at your favorite place, be sure to post it to your social media and tag us with #Chattzinefest. We want to see what you see."
