Newcastle Mini Comic Event 2012

After the success of last year's event, plans are now underway to run another for Mini Comics in 2012. This time the venue will be Newcastle Central Library. The date planned is 21st April between 1 and 5pm and will be held in Bewick Hall which is the large room where the fantastic Canny Comic Con took place.

It'll be an afternoon of mini comic making fun for all ages and abilities. As with all mini comic events, the plan is for everyone to leave with a finished comic they have created.

In addition to the workshop there will be a number of presentations beforehand. These will be from local comics creators and will talk about aspects of comics and visual story telling. They will contain something to help comic creators everywhere. The line up is not quite finalised but will posted here when finalised.

This event is planned to coincide roughly with World Mini Comics Day. But I'm not sure when it is this year, so decided to go ahead anyway.

More details will follow soon.
