The San Anto Zine Fest will return to the city’s central library next month for its third iteration.

The free literary festival, held in partnership with the San Antonio Public Library, will feature more than 100 exhibitors of self-published comics, poetry, personal stories, fiction and art zines by authors from around the nation, according to organizers. It’s scheduled for 10 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 9.

During the event, organizers will unveil the Big Read Zine — an annual free anthology of art, poems, and stories authored by San Antonio residents. This year’s edition asked contributors to create their own visions of futuristic utopias.

San Antonio Zine Fest also will include hands-on activities to promote creativity and literacy.
