PS GUELPH’s annual Rock / Paper / Scissors: Book & Print Fair is back on Sunday, February 23, from 11 am to 4 pm at the Art Gallery of Guelph. The event is free!

Rock / Paper / Scissors is devoted to small-scale publishing and the social life of the book. This year, local zinesters, printmakers, artists, poets, and publishers from across Ontario and further afield will join us for a print media lover’s dream. Peruse hand-made and locally published books and print media and support small book makers, artists, and publishers. This year, over 50 vendors will be joining the event.

Rock / Paper / Scissors is co-presented by PS Guelph, Musagetes, and Art Gallery of Guelph. The Book & Print Fair event space is accessible by both a ramp and stairs leading to the front entrance, with stair and elevator access to the washrooms. Masks are encouraged, and some will be available at the door. The organizers encourage vendors and guests to stay home if they feel unwell. Please reduce the use of scented products (e.g. perfume, cologne) for this event.
