On Saturday, October 1st at Northampton Center for the Arts at 33 Hawley from noon – 5 PM, over 20 artists will gather for a one-day celebration of contemporary artist publications, prints, and multiples. This event will feature a diverse community of artists, publishers, and collectives from across western Massachusetts and throughout New England. Artwork will be on display and for sale and will include artists’ books, zines, chapbooks, poetry, comics, screenprints, risograph prints, photographs, photobooks, mini sculptures, ceramics, wearable art, and much more.

The NPBF represents a unique opportunity for the public to directly engage with and support local and regional artists. The event is free to attend and open to the public with 100% of the sales going directly to the artists.

This year’s NPBF is sponsored in part by the Northampton Arts Council and CatLABS, with additional support from Collective Copies, Daily Operation, and generous community members and past NPBF vendors. Branding & identity by Chris Chew.
