The Menil Collection Bookstore, in collaboration with Dallas Zine Party, TOMO mags, and Zine Fest Houston, present: Mythic Picnic: A Picnic of Mythic Proportions! Taking place from 1-5pm at the Menil Bookstore during Menil Fest on Saturday, May 7th, 2016.
Travel with us to a realm of legend, to a time when heroines and heroes of the printed word did battle against the forces of mindless content creation and monolithic book mongers! Take respite in our decadent caravanserai and celebrate DIY and small press publishing on the lawn of the Menil Bookstore! Lounge on our many fine blankets and browse an assortment of the latest zines, comix, chapbooks, magazines, and art by Texas’ finest - including the much awaited Zine Fest Houston 2016 Compilation Zine!
Sate your hunger on delectable foods provided by Phoenicia Specialty Foods! Delight in ambrosial nectars specially formulated for Mythic Picnic! Feast your eyes on a captivating topical video stream compiled by Houston’s Ella Egg Films! Indulge the senses in a special celebratory cake!
Come for the lounging and activities, and stick around for great battle to be waged between the realm of Dagorath (a Houston LARPing community) and the menace - nay, the SCOURGE of the mythic past - THE FABLED HYDRA PIÑATA!
