Call for Participation for the Digital Archive/Exhibition of Zines with a Social Conscience:
The College Book Art Association (CBAA) invites you to submit to Rising Together | a Digital Archive/Exhibition of Zines with a Social Conscience, an open digital zine archive/exhibition held from 2017-2021. The purpose of the digital archive is to give CBAA members, and the broader book arts community, a direct way to react and give voice to issues of social justice, power, politics, and environment. The digital archive/exhibition is open to current CBAA members as well as students and colleagues of CBAA members.
DEADLINE
For inclusion in the digital (website-based) archive, participants must submit their zine digitally, by the rolling deadlines of September 15, January 15 and May 15 each year until January 2021. The digital archive will be ongoing throughout 2017-2021, with submissions displayed as received at each rolling deadline.

Limit five entries per person.
