Alt Press Fest is a celebration of local zines and the folks who make them. Our mission is to support the Salt Lake City zine community and provide a platform for emerging artists to showcase their work and connect with others. This year, APF will celebrate its 13th year with events hosted both virtually and in-person at various City Library locations, throughout the week of October 10.
Zinemaking has deep roots in freedom of press, protest, and social justice. We know that art and self-expression flourish during challenging times and we acknowledge the importance of uplifting those who aren’t given prominent voices through mainstream channels.

These historically marginalized identities include (but aren’t limited to) age, ability, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, country of origin.
Whether you qualify for our honorarium or not, this year’s fest will offer everyone various opportunities to participate:
