After more than a year of challenges posed by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Southwest Florida-based nonprofit, Love Your Rebellion, which works to empower marginalized groups through the arts, is planning to begin hosting in-person events again.
Love Your Rebellion will be holding Fort Myers Zine Fest at Neenie’s House at 481 Marsh Ave, Fort Myers, FL 33905 on Friday, April 23 from 6 to 10 p.m.
The mostly outdoor event will feature works available for purchase from artists, artisans, zine makers, fashion designers as well as food vendors. The event will also feature live music and a dance performance-style fashion show.
We’ll get a preview of the event with Love Your Rebellion founder Angela Page and we’ll meet New York-based artist, cartoonist and painter Lauren Barnett who will be coming to Southwest Florida for the event. Her work has been featured in such publications as the New Yorker Magazine, the Washington Post’s “The Lily” and Harper’s Bazaar Korea.
