Chicago Zine Fest presents: HALLOWZINE 2016 is TOMORROW! 10/28/16 @ 7:00 p.m. at Chi-PRC (858 N. Ashland Ave.)

Five years of spooky stories: it's our fifth annual Hallowzine!

We'll have zine & comics artists telling you their creepiest, funniest, most Halloween-y stories. Just a $5 donation to Chicago Zine Fest will get you in to hear great artists and enter our door prize raffle with fabulous prizes!

The fright night of ghoulish performers includes: a zine reading by Jack Murphy, video presentation by Jade Beach, comics from Bianca Xunise, poetry by Dan Pogorzelski and the musical comedy stylings of Fresh2Death.

Saturday Night Drink n' Draw returns to Chi-PRC  (858 N. Ashland Ave.) on Saturday, August 20 at 8 p.m.!

Since 2014, Chi PRC has been the homebase for monthly SNDnD meeting sessions. The drawing event has resulted in mini-comic jams, live music sessions, and a gallery exhibition in 2015. The event went on hiatus this past spring and summer but is now back with new drawing activities, projects, games, and more!

As always, the event is BYOB and artists of any and all "skill level" are invited. Some snacks will be provided along with music and host Alex Nall who will lead the creative endeavors for the evening.

A $3 suggested donation will be requested at the door to help benefit Chi-PRC.

Hallowzine is this Friday at Chi Prc (858 N. Ashland Ave) at 7:00 p.m.! Don't miss the incredible readers that will be sharing spooky stories, like Andrea Bell's comic  'Rose from the Dead' published by Yeti Press!

The Chi-PRC online fundraiser went live earlier this week. This place is a valuable community resource center for Chicago writers and artists. I’ve hosted plenty of workshops and events here and attended some great ones by friends and local/visiting artists.

We’ve added three new readers to our already incredible line-up for Hallowzine 2015! Joining us at Chi-ORC on Friday, October 23 at 7 p.m. will be Anita M. Mechler, Paul Durica, and Mike Centeno! Our emcee for the evening will be Mason Johnson, host of the podcast ‘Bad Karate’.

Hallowzine celebrates the zine fest with themed readings and performances by Chicago self-publishers. The scary lineup includes writers Megan Kirby, Anita Mechler and Paul Durica and comics artists Sean Mac, Andrea Bell, and Mike Centeno! The emcee for the night will be writer Mason Johnson.

The event is $5. All proceeds benefit the 2016 Chicago Zine Fest.

Drink specials will be available for donation. Plus there will be candy, zines and screams.
