We are working on putting together a **zine** in order to fundraise for this year's Arts Walk! The zine will be submission based, and submissions should be somehow Arts Walk related i.e. an interview with a band that will be playing, an art work inspired by a previous walk, but this is not a very strict rule so feel free to get super creative!

Submissions will be due next week, as we try to prepare to have it done by the next fundraiser show!
