How are exhibitor fees determined?

Printed Matter is a non-profit organization. As is the case for all Printed Matter Art Book Fairs, fees will go directly toward the hard costs of this non-profit production. These include space rental, operations and staffing costs, and programming expenses, including honoraria for artists, speakers, and publishers.

Price ranges noted in the application are approximate. An exhibitor’s fee is determined by the size and location of their Fair presentation space and category (i.e. zinemaker, distributor, gallery, small press, arts institution). Fees are also determined by the pricing of applicant’s publications and the scale of operation. Preference will be noted, but due to space limitations exhibitors may be offered placement that differs from their request.

The fee does not include associated exhibitor travel and lodging costs. 

Exhibitor fees are due approximately 10 days from the date of acceptance.
