If you’re in the Boston area this weekend, stop in at the Boston Zine Fair! I’ll be there on Sunday, tabling with Trees and Hills, and on Sunday afternoon we’re leading a workshop entitled, “COMICS EDUCATION & COMMUNITY ORGANIZING: Produce, Publish, Promote!”

I’m really excited about the workshop. It starts at 3:30 Sunday afternoon. We’re going to talk about cool stuff like:

  • Organizing comics groups, classes, and projects within communities and community organizations
  • Designing your projects and programs
  • Finding funding (applying for grants, for example!)
  • Communication
  • Promotion
  • Cool projects in the works!

We’ll also do some brainstorming to design new (future) projects in our communities, and I’ll do some dramatic readings of my community-themed comics. It’ll be a blast… You will leave with IDEAS and ENTHUSIASM, or your money back! I GUARANTEE IT!

(Um, yes, it’s a free show!)

    Sounds very practical! Wish I could go!

    Keep up the good work. I am going to start calling you “The Comics Guru”. I had hoped to acquire that title for myself, but I’m afraid you’re leaving me in the dust. Maybe I can be the Pennsylvania Comics Guru if I start hustling.
