We're contractually obligated to recycle some of our titles after their off-sale date. Sending so much paper to the bin hurt our hearts, so we launched a series of collage workshops and the rest is history. Toronto Life once told their readers that "artists and crafters in the know come to Issues for the two-hour collage workshops" and we'd tend to agree.

Armed with a little insight from Della Rollins, we set out to build a portfolio review offering that helped intermediate and senior level photographers further their career. Once a year, we invite art buyers from the worlds of editorial, advertising and fine art to sit down with attending photographers in the hopes of forging new relationships.

In 2024, we took all the insight and energy we'd built around our Photo Portfolio Review program and launched a similar event for Illustrators. Once a year, we invite art buyers from the worlds of editorial, advertising, fine art and children's book publishing to sit down with illustrators in hopes of forging new relationships—and getting attendeess new gigs.

The zine community in Toronto is thriving. It's made up of a diverse array of artists, writers, and makers. For two weeks each year, we hand over a good chunk of our space to a curated selection of zines. In 2024 we hosted 100+ titles, sold 650+ zines and paid out almost $6,000—and we can't wait to do it again. Submissions for 2025 will open in the spring.
