the ottawa small press book fair, spring 2006 edition

span-o (the small press action network - ottawa)
presents


the ottawa small press book fair spring edition
will be held on Saturday, June 17th from noon to 5 p.m.

in room 203 of the Jack Purcell Community Centre (on Elgin, at 320 Jack Purcell Lane; map here). contact rob at rob@track0.com to sign up for a table, etc.

General info: the ottawa small press book fair noon to 5pm (opens at 11am for exhibitors)

admission free to the public. due to increased space costs (nearly doubled) table fees have increased from $15 to $20 for exhibitors (payable to rob mclennan, c/o 858 Somerset St W, main floor, Ottawa Ontario K1R 6R7).

full tables only. for catalog, exhibitors should send (on paper, not email) name of press, address, email, web address, contact person, type of publications, list of publications (with price), if submissions are being looked at, & any other pertinent info, including upcoming ottawa-area events (if any).

due to the increased demand for table space, exhibitors are asked to confirm far earlier than usual. i.e. -- before, say, the day of the fair.

the fair usually contains exhibitors with poetry books, novels, cookbooks, posters, t-shirts, graphic novels, comic books, magazines, scraps of paper, gum-ball machines with poems, 2x4s with text, etc. happens twice a year, started in 1994 by rob mclennan & James Spyker. now run by rob mclennan thru span-o.
questions, rob@track0.com or 613 239 0337

free things can be mailed for fair distribution to the same address. we will not be selling things for folk who cant make it, sorry.

also, always looking for volunteers to poster, move tables, that sort of thing. let me know if anyone able to do anything. thanks.
