(or, First Second at the MoCCA Art Festival)
The MoCCA Art Festival will be in town again this weekend! (You can see how I consider them a kind of traveling circus that comes briefly into our lives to bring us comics delight and then evaporates away again with the beginning of the new week, leaving only memories? They are exactly like that.)
We'll be there! Our table is E32, and some of our authors have kindly consented to grace us with their presence. Here's the list:
Saturday:
11:00 – 12:30 – Susan Kim, Laurence Klavan, and Pascal Dizin stop by to sign the newly released City of Spies.
12:30 – 2:00 — James Sturm, Andrew Arnold, and Alexis Frederick-Frost stop by to sign Adventures in Cartooning. Possibly the first public ensemble signing for this book!
2:00 – Mike Cavallaro stops by to sign the newly released New York fantastical adventure Foiled.
Sunday:
2:00 – George O’Connor, just returned from a Texan adventure, signs the first two books in his newly released mythological series, Zeus and Athena.
Actually, Gina, you will find that MOCCA is not a temporary fair, but a year-round carnival! WHile the Art Fest lasts one brief weekend, the museum is open year round, and they regularly sponsor book signings, cartoonist speakings, film showings, classes, etc. Plus they have an extensive library that is open to museum members. So do not despair when the weekend is over!
