The Fair

The Toronto Small Press Group is a non-profit arts organization that has dedicated itself to support reading, encourage publishing and writing and to increase an awareness of the literary community in Toronto and the GTA. Its mandate is to promote very small to medium-sized presses, by holding two Toronto Small Press Book Fairs in the spring and fall of each year, and by a series of literary events held throughout the year.


The Fair

The Toronto Small Press Group grew out of the “Meet the Presses” events organized by Stuart Ross and Nick Power back in the 80s, which was then a once-a-month gathering featuring five or six small and micro presses displaying, selling, and reading from new work. A much larger gathering, The (first) Toronto Small Press Book Fair, became an annual event in 1987, and a biannual event in the fall of 1990. The fair has become an integral part of the Ontario literary community and is a greatly anticipated part of the literary seasonal calendar.
