KC Zine Con #10: October 11 + 12!



Virtual Tables

Below is the KC Zine Con Virtual Table directory — our online exhibitor's hall! The virtual table page is arranged randomly, and the order of the tables changes every time you refresh the page.

To get started, select a category from the list below to view zinesters making work on that topic. Please note: this table map utilizes Javascript to sort tables by category. Not seeing anything when you click a button? Click here to access a Javascript-free version that lists all of the tables. (Please note: this page was uploaded when the table map was created, so some waitlisted zinesters might not be listed here yet -- and some folks who dropped out might still be included! Our volunteer organizers are working to make the updates as quick as possible.)
