The 2nd Annual Providence Anarchist Bookfair is being held on Saturday, July 15th in conjunction with AS220's FOO FEST anniversary celebrations on Empire Street in Downtown Providence, Rhode Island. The Providence Anarchist Bookfair is being organized as an opportunity to exchange anarchist and anti-authoritarian ideas. The bookfair and all related street-fair activities are free to attend and open to the public.

Tables are $25 (with sliding scale for people willing to share space). Included in your fee will be a 6x2 table, chairs, and a spot under one of the street tents. Space is limited so please sign up now if you'd like to sponsor a table. To book a table, contact Sue at sue@circleacycles.com. Priority within the bookfair itself will be on the written word (books, pamphlets, zines, audio-visual materials) by groups including publishers, distributors, and action-oriented groups as well as individuals. We will also accept, on a case-by-case basis information, participation from community/activist groups, small publishers, and vendors of materials such as buttons, T-shirts or patches who fit within these principles.
