The Bay Area Anarchist Book Fair is a radical gathering with thousands of people attending and over 60 vendors sharing books, pamphlets, posters, artwork and more. This annual event is free and open to the public, welcoming people interested and engaged in radical politics to connect and learn through book and information tables, workshops, panel discussions, skillshares, films and more. It is an inclusive space to introduce new people to anarchist ideas, foster productive dialogue between various radical and Left political traditions, and create an opportunity to discuss radical politics, philosophy, and social movements.
There will be over 60 vendors and exhibitors, including many established Bay Area groups such as PM Press, AK Press, Bound Together Books, and Arizmendi Bakery, as well as vendors from across the US such as CrimethInc, Left Bank Books, and Melville House. There will be children's programming and activities throughout the day.
The Book Fair features a full day of programming with workshops on topics such as revolutionary mothering, parenting, street art, radical storytelling, gentrification, police violence, and more.
This year’s Book Fair poster was designed by Zeph Fish.
The social media hashtag for the event is #BAABF
