Indie Comic Con is a comics festival celebrating independent Australian creators. In its second year, Indie Comic Con is a free community arts event that will be held at Northcote Town Hall on December 8th 2018, 11am – 6pm.
Indie Comic Con will feature workshops, panels, cosplay and art competitions, various prize draws and an amazing artist market showcasing comics, zines, graphic novels and prints across all genres.
The event grew out of frustration with large-scale comic conventions’ focus on pop culture autographs, fan art and merchandise. Festival Director, Nathan Onias saw this as an opportunity to cultivate a space for creators that focus on producing comics independently. Indie Comic Con will feature over 60 creators from around Australia, including notable artists Jess Kitty Parker, Darren Close and Mr Splitfoot. Our workshop day will be Sunday, December 9th 2018, 11:30am – 5:30pm at Jika Jika Community Centre, Northcote.
The event is designed for all ages and aims to be an inclusive safe space for the community and is proudly sponsored by Comic Books On Demand, The Comic Dr, The Comic Place, Media Arts Lawyers, Manga Arts, and the Jika Jika Community Centre.
