The East Bay Alternative Book and Zine Fest (EBABZ) took place this past Saturday in Berkeley at the David Brower Center. Despite rain, attendance kept the fair at full capacity. It was great to see familiar faces and be inspired by other creative artists we met for the first time. With the Oakland fire fresh on our minds, there was so much support in the air. There were many tributes to EBABZ organizer, Ara Jo, who was at Ghost Ship.

At the front of the fair there was a donation table, where zines and other items had been donated and you could pick out a few items and donate what you wanted for them.
