Turns out that video didn’t kill the radio star, and the Internet didn’t kill ’zines. Although every postal-rate hike does knock a few of these intrepid publishers out of commission, the Twin Cities are still a hotbed of ’zine publishing. This second-annual festival of lectures, exhibits, workshops, and music brings the best of the bunch out of the underground. Hosted by the Stevens Square Center for the Arts, which houses an impressive ’zine library, this event proves that do-it-yourself publishing ventures still exist outside of the digital realm. 1905 3rd Ave. S., Minneapolis; or www.zinefest.org
