The Buffalo Small Press Book Fair is a regional one day event that brings booksellers, authors, bookmakers, zinesters, small presses, artists, poets, and other cultural workers (and enthusiasts) together in a venue where they can share ideas, showcase their art, and peddle their wares.
This is our fourth year, and we’d love to have your individual support in order to keep the book fair growing. We were lucky enough to receive a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts for marketing and promotion this year, but that still leaves a lot of incidental costs (table and chair rental, food, etc.)!
The fair has been an amazing success every single year, and we can make 2010 the best year yet with your help. All of the money donated through Kickstarter will be used for book fair costs, and any unused funds will be rolled over to the 2011 book fair.
Remember this event is FREE and open to the public. In 2009 we had over 80 vendors and almost 2000 participants!
Any individual who donates 50 dollars or more is guaranteed a limited edition silkscreened poster from this year, and silkscreened posters from previous years as well!
And the great thing about Kickstarter is the micro donation concept - you can donate anything from $1 to $500 - it’s up to you… and your credit card isn’t charged until we hit the $500 goal. We very much appreciate any support you can provide to help us keep this event strong and successful.
