Sticky Institute

Opening in 2001 with the aim of facilitating, promoting, and defending zine culture, Sticky Institute is a shop and resource devoted entirely to zines.

From its underground location, it not only sells zines on behalf of zinemakers, it also provides the space and tools necessary for zine makers to create their own titles, resources such as photocopier, long-armed staplers, typewriter, guillotine, and more.

Sticky Institute also runs and curates the annual zine program Festival Of The Photocopier, which includes the largest zine fair in Australia, held at Melbourne Town Hall.
