April Gertler co-organizes FLYLEAF BOOK & ZINE FESTIVAL from October 24-27 featuring 65 international artists and publishers
“The Flyleaf Festival is about connecting and sharing knowledge between publishers, artists, readers, zine enthusiasts, and book lovers,” Gertler explains. “The three spaces in Berlin Neukölln are within walking distance, small, cozy, and conducive to supporting dialogue. On the walk from one space to another, visitors can digest the things they have seen, and reflect upon the conversations they have had.”
Gertler is organizing the festival with two colleagues from Falschrum Books and Replika Publishing, and will also be exhibiting her own zines and books. The festival features over 65 international artists and publishers exhibiting and selling their printed materials, and will include zine-making workshops, lectures, screenings, launches, and fireside chats.
In addition, multiple BCB students will be among the artists exhibiting their work at the festival, including Robin Schubert ‘25, Yixin Wang ‘25, Tamro Iashvili ‘26, Ruska Tskhvediani ‘26, and Jay Nidzelska ‘26.
