The Second Annual Zine & DIY Fest

Saturday Jun 14, 11AM @ 2640 (2640 St. Paul St.)

Tired of reaching into your wallet to learn useful skills?  Wondering why self-sufficiency always seems to cost so much?  Then head on out to 2640 on June 14 for the annual Zine & DIY Fest, co-spnsored by Red Emma's and Barclay House and learn a whole new set of do-it-yourself skills!  With workshops on topics ranging from feeding the masses to computer maintenance to pet healthcare and guitar repair, and featuring some of our favorite local artists and craftspeople (and Red Emma's, of course!), the annual DIY Fest is a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.  Plus: It's FREE!  Check out www.diyfest.org for more info!  (Tables are still available!  Email us for more info ...)

Red Emma's is open Monday through Friday from 10AM-10PM, Saturday from 10AM-8PM, and Sunday from 10AM-6PM. Our weekly collective meetings are Sunday at 7PM, and are open to anyone interested in the project, except for the first Sunday of every month, which is closed to everyone except collective members.
Red Emma's is part of IU 660 of the Industrial Workers of the World, one of the only unions to recognize that worker collectives can stand in solidarity with those fighting the bosses as part of one big union.
