Olympia Comics Festival

A splash page from The Eternal Smile

Gene Yang and Derek Kirk Kim’s new book, The Eternal Smile, is now available in comic book shops nation wide. The artwork is stunning and the stories are mesmerizing. If you haven’t checked out Derek’s and Gene’s websites, you should! They’re filled with with even more comic-ey goodness.

If you’re thinking about getting a table at the fest, you’d better think fast! As of today, we only have 5 tables available. Don’t have much stuff to sell? Get a half table and/or split a table with a friend. It’ll save you a little money and save us a little space for more artists. If you’re curious about who’s exhibiting this year, keep checking back. As soon as we’re filled up, I’ll post a complete list of all the tablers and their websites so you can check out their stuff before you head to the festival.

This Sunday, May 10th, the Olympia Comics Foundation and the Timefighters are hosting a comics workshop from 4 - 7 P.M. at The Finger Complex (203 Rogers St. NW, Olympia, WA (it’s a house on the corner of Harrison and Rogers)) This workshop is designed to help people of all ages and skill levels improve their cartooning. A variety of materials will be provided, however we encourage you to bring your own pens, pencils, and whatever else you enjoy drawing with. No artistic skill necessary.
