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).

Diamond’s Coffee Shoppe
1618 Central Avenue Northeast
Minneapolis, Minnesota

Bus info here.

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.

Mead Hall Games & Comics, 1425 Lasalle Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55403

If you are anywhere near the Twin Cities, you really will not want to miss this.

Quite an opportunity for some lucky Minneapolis cartoonists… from Kevin Cannon’s tumblr here.

Know a Minneapolis artist that needs a studio space? After 10 long and fruitful years at Big Time Attic, I’m going to change gears, which means my corner office is up for grabs. The location is in Northeast Minneapolis nestled above a coffee shop and within spitting distance of four craft breweries. Best of all you’d be studio mates with six of the Twin Cities’ best cartoonists, including the (in my opinion) cream of the crop, Zander Cannon. We’ve got room for 2-3 people starting October 1, and the rate is very reasonable. Email me for more details: kevincannonart [at] gmail.com.

I just received the below info about a cool-sounding event happening tonight in Minneapolis:

Hello,

I’m the Event Planning Intern at ​Alliance Française Mpls/St Paul. Tomorrow, we are showing a live-stream discussion with French cartoonist Jean-Christophe Menu from the Albertine bookstore in New York.
