This month we have a Foodie edition of the Leeds Zine Library Lates exploring themes around food and recipes. Bring your best loved recipe to share for the recipe zine! Make a zine about your favourite dish, a family meal from your hometown, favourite takeaway or a tv chef's latest offering. We will be creating fabric food good enough to eat and looking at Leeds Libraries cookbooks for inspiration.

Welcoming local makers of arts, crafts, clothing, jewellery, accessories, homeware AND more ...

Join us for a great day supporting local makers. The event will take place in the Market Kitchen area of Leeds Kirkgate Market which is surrounded by street food options and lots of seating.
