The Minneapolis Cartoonist Conspiracy meets at 6:30 until 10:00 the first Thursday of every month at Diamond’s Coffee Shoppe in Northeast.

Generally, we draw collaborative “jam” comics, socialize and drink caffeinated beverages. Afterwords, we often have uncaffeinated beverages somewhere else.

The meetings are open to anyone who wants to draw with us, and the results are posted here sooner or later (and sometimes even printed).

Minneapolis, Minnesota

Please spend some money at Diamond’s while you’re there, even if it is just a cuppa coffee… they are excellent hosts, and we wanna stay welcome there.

ZINEFEST 2010 is coming sooner than you think!  Several of us were there last yeat.  Lots of fun.  You should table and/or attend yourself!   

From Conspirator/Stuff Organizer Sarah Morean:

The Twin Cities Zinefest is now accepting exhibitor applications.  Go here to reserve your table today: http://zinefest.org/application/

Like in the past, we will only accept online applications until we are near capacity.  Then all applicants will go on a wait list.

Table and chair fees are the same as last year.  Please note the “optional message” field on page one of the application.  Use that space to indicate special needs (do you want to sit near an outlet?), seating preferences (would you like to sit near your friends?), or any name changes (would you prefer to be listed by your name, business, or zine in our promotional materials and online?).

Please remember that a half-table at Zinefest is larger than most half-tables at other craft or book shows and reserve your space accordingly.  A full-size table is 8’x30″!  That is very large.  At 4’x30″, a half-table suits most creators just fine, and by reserving a half-table, you will create more room in the space for additional creators, which means more fun for everyone!

Feel free to write me with any questions.

Regards,
Sarah Morean

   Even if the rat sees his shadow it’ll still be cold.  So come warm up the old fashioned way–by drawing jam comics!

Come draw some jam comics before Jupiter blows up and burns us all to death!

I-CON is this Saturday, November 7th, from 9am to 5pm in Altoona, Iowa (just outside Des Moines) .  The Mpls/Stpl cells will be there–represented by RYAN DOW, DANIEL J OLSON, DANNO KLONOWSKI, and KEVIN CANNON.  We’ll be offering our own works, as well as the fabled BIG FUNNY! 

So, stop on by if you’re local, or drive for several hours if you are not.  See you there!

Conspirator and Daily Cross Hatch contributor SARAH MOREAN has made a documentry about 24 Hour Comic Day 2009 here in Minneapolis.   Super cool, Sarah! 

24 Hour Comic Day 2009: Minneapolis

   That’s right!  Conspirator Erik Nelson is a Master Plumber by day–Conspirator, creator of the comic WALKABOUT,  MANLY TALES OF COWARDICE: GUEST ARTIST SPECTACULAR and BIG FUNNY contributor by night.    And now he’s “THE FACE!” of Dickies Work Clothes.  Well…not THE face, but A face in a new commercial.  It’s a pretty great ad.  My favorite bit is the Zach Snyder-esque closing shot.  ENJOY THE COMMERCIAL HERE.

Ok, so there may not be any surprise guest artists dropping by this month’s jam (then again, who knows?),  but 24 HOUR COMIC DAY is for sure happening on OCTOBER 3rd, literally just hours after the jam ends.  Hope to see you at both!
