Geneva13: a zine of the local

Geneva13 is a quarterly, do-it-yourself, not-for-profit, independent, collective venture that promotes people’s creative expression as they construct their identities and communities. It is a love song to our town of Geneva, NY, and we want as many people as we can get to work on the lyrics. Geneva13’s goal is to present the community with a variety of points of view. We invite submissions, but we also conduct interviews with people we find intriguing in our community. The result is a 60-page zine that we hope facilitates understanding, appreciation and conversation, while also encouraging curiosity and creativity.

The zine is free and distributed across Geneva, NY. If you can’t find a copy, feel free to let us know. But we only print around 600-700 copies of each issue. We do not release digital versions of the zine, so please don’t ask for one or we’ll rant about the superiority of material objects and paper printing for three hours. Unfortunately, we no longer offer past copies for sale because we can’t keep them in stock. Yay for success! But if you are unable to lay your hands on a copy of the current issue, drop us an email and we’ll let you know how to PayPal us $2 to cover the postage. You can email us HERE.
