š LAās Most Comprehensive Zine & Indie Bookstore
⨠The Pop-Hop Books & Print š 5002 York Blvd, Highland Park, Los Angeles š°ļø Open ThuāSun: 11:00 AM ā 7:00 PM š” ⢠The Pop-Hop is an independent bookstore in Highland Park specializing in zines, indie publications, and art books. It also serves as a community art space with rotating exhibitions and eventsālocal creators are welcome to submit their work and join the conversation! ⢠What makes it special? Itās a worker-owned cooperativeāmeaning itās run and owned collectively by the people who work there, not a single owner. How cool is that? š¤ š¤ My Experience: ⢠This place has an incredible collection of zinesāI spent over an hour browsing (no joke!), and thereās always something new. ⢠After chatting with the staff, I learned their huge zine selection comes from an open call years ago that built lasting collaborations with artists. They still welcome submissionsāso if you make zines or art books, this is your chance! šØ ⢠Their gallery space features changing exhibitions, and they host regular events (check their website or Instagram for updates). ⢠Flipping through zines here feels like diving into a sea of ideasāeach one is a unique, mind-expanding journey. #ArtBooks #ZineFest #ZineCulture #LABookstores #LosAngeles #LALife #LAArtScene #IndiePublishing #CommunitySpace #WorkerCoop #CreativeLA #ExploreHighlandPark #LocalArtists #BookLovers #HiddenGems #ReadingIsCool
