Table Registration Officially Opens Sept 15th

Make Checks Out to Tomas Moniz

Space is limited! Here is the link to the Table Registration Form. Please fill out and mail in.

We have a limited number of full tables (approximately 5 feet) for 25 dollars. Half Tables are sliding scale 0-25. The goal is to have a diverse, exciting collection of tablers and, since we are starting now, to generate a large attending crowd.

But we also need your help and ideas. We are in the initial planning stages of the event. And are considering adding another room connected to the main atrium, perhaps a zine and comic variety show on the eve of the event, and perhaps an art or zine reading room that can serve a few different purposes. For those who attended the SF Zine fest, did the second room seem to work or not?

Our next planning meeting is going to be at Berkeley City College on Monday September 26th at 7pm.

If you’re interested, but cannot attend and would like to stay involved, please send an email to: ebapbookfair@gmail.com
