Grid Zine Fest is an annual zine festival in Salt Lake City. Over 75 zine makers from across the country table at our annual festival in the mountain west city we all call home. Whether you have been making zines for 30 years, or made your first one last week; have an MFA or doodle in the margins, there is a table for you to share what you make at Grid Zine Fest.


Safer Spaces

Grid Zine Festival is a safer space, which means we strive to create an environment in which all community members feel welcomed and can participate and connect. Grid Zine Festival will not tolerate racism, queerphobia, transphobia, sexism, ableism, fatphobia/sizeism, classism, threats of violence, or other hate speech. No TERFs; Free Palestine.

Land Acknowledgement

Grid Zine Fest takes place in so-called Salt Lake City, which exists on Ute and Shoshone territories in Utah, in which Goshute, Paiute, and Diné peoples also have territories. We honor the land and those who have stewarded the land, even in the face of systemic adversity. We all live on stolen land.  

COVID-19 Policy

Grid Zine Fest is dedicated to keeping our community safe. Since 2020, we have been monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic carefully and following city and state guidelines to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Although we are returning to in-person events in 2022, we encourage mask wearing and we will continue to take precautions to help everyone stay healthy.
