Here's some evidence of the eighth annual
@brooklynartbookfair - This year was wild, lots of curveballs, lots of love, lots of MAKING IT HAPEN ANYWAY 🦋💙🐟📚📘🩵🪁🪺
BKABF is an art bookfair for emerging and underrepresented artists. We are passionate about removing financial barriers of access to marginalized groups, are committed to disability justice, and exist as a site for resistance, discussion, and emancipatory politics. We don't charge tabling fees, we don't take a cut of sales, & we redistribute funds to artists to ensure everyone is paid for their labor for the weekend.
This literally would not be possible without:
🦋 Our incredible leader, BKABF Director Sarula
