a map for small artists and publishers.

We know how it feels to hunt for events and miss application deadlines.

artbookfairs is dedicated to surfacing announcements, applications, and event dates for art book fairs, zine fests, comic cons, artist alleys, and craft markets.

We consolidate the sprawling web of information from Instagram, community Discord channels, newsletters, and your closest friends — making it easier for artists to find opportunities and for the public to support small businesses.
