24 Hour Comics Day

Service Description

On October 5, from 12-3 pm at the Print Shop (62 Main Street, Holyoke), artists and writers are invited to create a 24-page comic in 24 hours. Grab a supply kit with drawing materials, idea worksheets, and templates. You can work from home or stay and sketch with us. Started by Scott McCloud in 1990, the challenge is simple: start and finish your comic within 24 hours. No pre-planned plots or character sketches allowed, and all breaks count! There is no cost to participate; this program is funded in part by a grant from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Registration required.
