happenstance presents: Paper Goods Fest

Welcome to Paper Goods Fest!
Something’s brewing — and it’s more than just beer. Presented by artist collective happenstance, we are all about paper goods & print love.
So join us for Paper Goods Fest, a pop-up paper party hosted by happenstance. We’re taking over Container’s upstairs lounge for one afternoon only to celebrate all things printed, folded, sticker-y, and zine-y.
Browse one-of-a-kind goodies, connect with local artists, or make something weird and wonderful yourself.

-DIY table where you can make your own zine, collage, or paper work-of-art
-Container Brewing’s best on tap
-Admission is free, just show up and enjoy!
Venue & Accessibility
✦ Masks encouraged
Visitors will be encouraged to bring their masks to make it welcoming for more people. You will have to pass through the pub downstairs to reach the upstairs area which is generally unmasked.
✦ Parking
There is 2-hour street parking along Franklin St and Vernon Dr.
✦ Accessibility/Location
Paper Goods Fest will take place on the upper floor of Container Brewing, which is only accessible by stairs — unfortunately there is no elevator access. There is an accessible washroom on the first floor, and a standard washroom on the second floor where the market is taking place. There is also an outdoor space with picnic tables where you can enjoy a brew or a zine!
✦ Other considerations
Heat: The upstairs lounge can get hot in the summer, especially in the afternoon. We will do our best to keep the temperature reasonable!
Noise: This is a brewery. It can also get loud with overlapping conversations and sound bouncing in the space.
