E17 Art Trail

2011-09-09T09:52:00.004+01:00

Hello!
It's been a while since I have posted on here having handed the reins of Meow magazine over to a new editorial team in October last year however for one weekend only I am back as an honorary Meow member (no mean feat having graduated and left lovely Middlesex Uni and therefore Meow behind!).

This Sunday, 11th September, Meow will have a stall at the Book-ish event in the E17 Art Trail in Walthamstow. Selling back copies of everyone's favourite illustrated zine I will be joined by Middlesex tutor Andrew Baker and third year illustrators Eileen Kwan and Abi Moulder. Aside from the magazine we will also have lots of handmade and illustrated goodies for sale so please do come along...

2-6pm
Asian Centre
Walthamstow
E17 9LN

See you there!

Thank you to everyone who came to The Rag Factory to support our stall at the London Zine Symposium today, for those who didn't, here are a few photographs of our lovely stall. We did bring along some screenprints, etchings and posters, but unfortunately had nowhere to display them, which was a shame, but we enjoyed the day all the same, and will definitely be attending more of these gatherings in the future.
