arkore
We have a long standing tradition of published works and ARKORE is our current manifestation of that. '
While the written word has been our primary modus operandi — we are a bookshop after all — we also find ourselves inspired by a variety of mediums and wanted to showcase the personalities of the ark family. So far we have published two zines: Salad Days (2023) and Word Vomit (2024).

The feeling in the pit of your stomach when you realize you managed to mindlessly say everything and anything you were trying to keep to yourself. Or it’s a feeling of relief, that the truth is finally out and it’s not only yours to bear.

Smoking weed and drinking coffee on a sunny day. Trying to steal a Playboy off the top shelf.
A greeting from a fluffy cat.
It’s everything we get nostalgic for and sets the bar higher for the best days ever, even while we secretly still hope that the best days are yet to come.
