Sequential Artists Workshop

We'll be at DCAZ AND TCAF this weekend!

In the southeast, find the SAW table at DCAZ on June 6 staffed by Carly Shooster! If you're one of our northeast friends, try to stop by our table at TCAF (265) guarded by amazing SAW members Sandy, Alison, and Maya through the whole weekend!

Learn about our programs, see our publications in your hands, and chat it up with some amazing artists/instructors!

Do you ever wish SAW would come to YOU? :/

We CAN (we will)! Check out festivals, comic fairs, zine expos, and/or streets and alleyways we'll be hanging at this year on our website. Since we can't know where we'll be before a festival announces applications or exhibitors, the festivals calendar on our website will be updated regularly based on where we hear back from. Sometimes we even go to one last minute!

See you around, somewhere!

The posters shown in these pictures were not created by us. Taken from DCAZ's and TCAF'S website. Please refer there to learn about the awesome artists.
