Scott McCloud Was Here



Last night's event with Scott McCloud was a big success and a great time — insightful and a whole lot of fun. Thanks to Scott, Ivy, Sky and Winter for making the stop, checking out Strip: Undressing Comics, and for visiting with everyone. And big thanks to everyone who came and who stopped by the 7000 BC table to visit and check out our work. If we didn't manage to exchange contact information, you can send an email to be updated about upcoming activities.

Scott McCloud in Albuquerque

Wednesday, July 18 | 7:00 pm | The Art Center Design College | 5000 Marble St NE | Albuquerque, NM

Comics are changing fast, both in the kinds of stories they tell, and how their creators tell them. Thanks to the graphic novel movement, the manga invasion and the growth of webcomics, the story of comics in America is more exciting and unpredictable than ever.

As a part of the 50-state tour for Making Comics, author and comics artist Scott McCloud will be stopping in Albuquerque to put all these trends into perspective in a fast-moving visual presentation at The Art Center Design College (map).

Presented by 7000 BC, VSA North Fourth Art Center, and The Art Center Design College.

Tickets are $10 ($8 for students), available at the door.
