Saturday August 10th, Abbotsford Convent, St Heliers Street, Abbotsford - In previous years, the Melbourne Anarchist Bookfair was a great success. It attracted hundreds of people from around Australia to share ideas, attend workshops and strengthen networks.

2013 will be no different. This is a call out to independent book-sellers, activist group or individuals who would like to be part of this event. Last year we had skill shares and workshops looking at topics such as climate justice, current Greek situation, DIY, Sea Shepherd, introduction to anarchism, workplace struggles, permaculture, indigenous topics, feminism, education, creating community spaces, gender and refugee issues, and much more.

The idea for this event came from various Anarchist Bookfairs around the world. The London Anarchist Bookfair has been a successful event attended by thousands of politically engaged and radical groups and people for almost thirty years.

Each year the stalls are quickly sold out to independent booksellers, activist groups and other radical enterprises promoting their ideas and selling merchandise.

If you would like to have a stall/workshop here is the pricing:

Stall - $50 if paid before July 15th, or $60 after this time

(Note: just ask us if this is too much for you or your group).

If you’re interested please contact the Melbourne Anarchist Bookfair via our website: http://amelbournebookfair.org/contact

We are a not-for-profit bunch of volunteers and all money received will go on venue, equipment hire, and publicity (postcards, café posters, larger posters on campuses and in select locations). We are committed to financial transparency and on the website you can view our projected budget

We are also looking for volunteers who would like to help with this event, including promotion and help on the day of the event.
