ALYAC Fest is a free event celebrating comics and graphic novels, featuring local professional creators and young artists ages 8-18!This year's headliners are cartoonists Kayla Miller (author of the CLICK and BESTIES series) and Lincoln Peirce (author of BIG NATE and MAX & THE MIDKNIGHTS).
We'll have workshops throughout the day led by comics creators so kids can learn how to create comics of their own!
Kids can showcase and sell their comics, too!
We are looking for young artists aged 8-18 to apply for a spot at our Young Artists Tables.
