Hajimete-zukuri Market is a ZINE event held at Asaka City Industry and Culture Center (669-1 Hamasaki, Asaka City, Saitama Prefecture 351-0033) on Sunday, June 28, 2026 (Festival-style event).
An event where you can enjoy and purchase handmade books (ZINE), illustration/photo books, and handmade items from 50 exhibitors on the spot.
In recent years, watching the news and social media has increasingly left people feeling down. Precisely because of times like these, there is great meaning in not just receiving information but in creating something new, appreciating the works that are born, and enjoying them.
Also, I think places full of the feeling "I love this!" are wonderful. We've prepared that kind of happiness you can experience at the venue. Please come and visit us!
