Melbourne's zine scene is headquartered in the suitably subterranean Sticky, a shop beneath Flinders Street in the delightfully time-warped Campbell Arcade. Sticky is also the hub for the first Festival of the Photocopier, which celebrates the many low-budget/high-spirited zines in our midst and the contribution they make to local culture. 

Events include group excursions to the State Library to view its Rare Printed Collection, along with various zine launches, such as Mix Tape, which is dedicated to 'making time for the little things’ (in this case, like making dollies out of cardboard toilet rolls). The glass display cabinets lining the subway exhibit Secrets of the Photocopier - with nary a bare office bum in sight - and there's never been a better time to discover this arcade (accessed from Degraves St), which has largely been untouched since it was built for the 1956 Olympics. And don't forget to look in on our special friend Chris at Corky Saint Clair.
