Āporo Press is a micro-press established and run by Damien Levi and Ruby Leonard. The press aims to publish works by minority voices in Aotearoa New Zealand and fill gaps in the market left unaddressed by major publishing houses.
The press publishes across forms and genres, including anthologies, poetry, comics, zines, novels, and more. Regarding themes, there is a specific focus on platforming work by LGBTQIA+ individuals, Māori and other writers from minority communities.
Āporo Press authors include Sloane Hong, Nicola Andrews, Laura Vincent, Jo Bragg, Anthony Lapwood and more.
