BICZ at Zine Dream - August 15th, 2026
BICZ is so proud to be part of Zine Dream 16, an annual small press art fair held in Toronto. This year, Zine Dream was held at Parkdale Hall and featured over 70 small presses and zinesters.
Representing BICZ are Malachi Watson-Narcisse and Bianca Delmar (L to R, pictured above).
Bianca Delmar (she/her) is an award-winning multidisciplinary artist and zinemaker who has exhibited her artwork at zine festivals and artist markets since 2021. She is also the organizer of Cat Scratch Art Market, a unique one-day event celebrating zines, comics, crafts, and underground art made by primarily Brampton-based creators.
Malachi Watson-Narcisse (@thewhoyorker) is a multidisciplinary artist from Brampton, passionate about community and Raisin Bran. He makes illustrations, murals and other things. In 2023 he started making the zine formerly known as @thewhoyorker which highlights local arts and culture.
This was also BICZ’s first time experimenting with a consignment program, where Brampton artists and zinesters can submit their work to be featured and sold at Zine Dream.
