Testimonials

"Having been to a zine workshop facilitated by Katie and Chloe previously, I had high expectations for our event and Coin-operated Press rose to the occasion. All the administration from them was professionally dealt with, they were great at communicating with us, arrived promptly on the day and the feedback from their workshop was highly evaluated.

I would definitely recommend Coin-Operated Press and look forward to working with them again in the future. A definite 5 out of 5!" ★★★★★ Sasha Callaghan, The Ripple

“The Coin-Operated Press’ “Festivals” anthology has arrived safely – thank you. I’m delighted to have the poem “Back To Grey On The Box” as created by my alter ego Alun Robert included in this quite splendid publication. I was impressed by the wide range and high quality of the contributions. Well done all. Included in my envelope was “How To Get The Most Out Of Art School”. Chloe has created an excellent booklet crammed full of common sense and solid advice. I hope it receives much wider readership. As an ex-pat of many years, I’m so encouraged (and proud) to witness my Motherland producing such a talented array of creative visual and written artists these days. Keep it up.” Alun Roberts
