Current Events!

A reminder that this coming Saturday is the Superhero Storytime event at Aunties Bookstore, co-sponsored by the Spokane ComiCon. It's scheduled for 11 am in the children's section - there will be raffles, coloring pages for kids and even costumed superheroes for photo-ops!

Free Comic Book Day is right around the corner as well (May 7). The Guild will have several people drawing free sketches at both Lightning Comics in Coeur d'Alene and Merlyns in Spokane. We'll also be sketching Thor pics at the theater in Coeur d'Alene on Saturday evening. If you're in the area, please drop by and meet the Guild, and pick up a free comic and sketch!

After Free Comic Book Day, the next big event is the Spokane ComiCon on May 21st, which is organized and run by our very own Nathan O'Brien. This is a great convention, which is the only comic convention in the Inland Northwest and growing each year, and the majority of the Guild will be represented in Artist Alley. We look forward to seeing you there!
