MoCCA Fest Comes but Once a Year

Poster by Michael DeForge

Next weekend is the MoCCA Arts Fest, the first under the management of the Society of Illustrators since MoCCA was absorbed into the Society last year.  Considering the current exhibits on Harvey Kurtzman, of Mad Magazine fame, and Bill Griffith, of Zippy the Pinhead fame, as well as MoCCA Fest guest of honor Jillian Tamaki, and  you get the idea that they’re really courting the comics crowd.

Society director Anelle Miller was recently profiled in this nifty New York Times article, but we’ll see after next weekend if she’s managed to impress the discerning indie comics scene…
