As analogue creativity continues to thrive
in today’s digital world, CzipVillage returns with a curated weekend
celebrating journalling, art, stationery and meaningful human connection.
This year, CzipLee (集利) invites visitors from all
walks of life to experience CzipVillage. It features a two-day creative and
cultural gathering centred around journalling, stationery, art and intentional
creative experiences.
Held at The Venue @ ONE Bangsar on the
weekend of June 13th to June 14th, from 11.00 am to 7.00 pm, CzipVillage is
brought to you by CzipLee, the beloved Malaysian bookstore and stationery retailer
known for championing analogue creativity and community-driven experiences.
This year’s edition marks a significant
evolution from the previous year, introducing the theme “You Are The Living
Archive”. The concept positions CzipVillage as a welcoming space where
visitors, creators and communities are celebrated and remembered through
meaningful interactions and creative expression.
CzipLee is collaborating for the 5th year
with Sumthings of Mine, the journalling and stationery lifestyle store behind the SOMe Market,

“CzipVillage is an invitation for people
to pause and reconnect with themselves through creativity, reflection and
intentional experiences.
“More than just a market, CzipVillage has
grown into a creative platform that brings together communities, brands and
creators who share a passion for analogue creativity and thoughtful living.
“Through carefully curated vendors and
interactive spaces, we hope visitors leave with experiences and memories that
feel personal and lasting,” added Jason Chen, Executive Director of CzipLee.
Check out what awaits you at CzipVillage:
SOMe Market 5.0
At the heart of CzipVillage is SOMe Market
5.0, the region’s highly anticipated artisan journalling and stationery market curated by Sumthings of
Mine. Bringing together over 60 carefully curated creators, independent brands and creative studios
from Malaysia and across Asia, the market celebrates the growing culture of
analogue creativity, storytelling and intentional living.
Visitors can look forward to discovering
niche stationery labels, paper goods, journalling tools, art prints and lifestyle
creations, including several overseas vendors who rarely participate in
physical pop-ups within the region.

In conjunction with World’s Environment
Day (5 June), this year’s theme deeply integrates both social empowerment and environmental
sustainability through a powerful collaboration with AACE and Kawan Guni. They
are joining CzipLee as the event’s Community and Sustainability Impact
Partners.

The event will feature a dynamic mix of
engagements and upcycling demonstrations on sustainability. Outdoor activations
will highlight collaborative community art projects designed by AACE to foster
social cohesion and community expression. To amplify this dual impact, 50% of
the entrance fee will be channeled directly towards supporting
both AACE’s social empowerment initiatives and Kawan Guni’s environmental
sustainability efforts. Each ticketed visitor will get to redeem 1 recycle
plastic charm from AACE x Kawan Guni.

founded in 2020 as a print studio in
George Town, Penang, by artists Ernest
