Mpls. Sat. Open Studio, Aug. 11, noon to 4 p.m.

[Artist with ink]

Time to get drawing. Perhaps work on your Lutefisk Sushi contribution. Meet, talk and draw with a few of your fellow cartoonists at Minnesota Center for Book Arts. We’ll be at the coveted high tables, just past the MCBA store.

Hopefully there’ll be a coffee shop in the building for sandwiches, snacks and cold beverages. (There wasn’t one last month, but perhaps something has moved in since. If not, there’s a convenience store across the street for snacks.) There are handy outlets nearby for your electrical devices. Plus (again, hopefully) free, slow coffee-shop wi-fi.

Saturday, August 11, from noon until 4 p.m., Bindery (high tables)

This is an open studio — all are welcome.

The whole metro area is buzzing about the Red Bull Crashed Ice Ultimate Ice-Cross Downhill Racing Event to be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, January 14 at the St Paul Cathedral.* And you can go to that for sure. If you want to experience extreme thrills, that is. But before you go there, stop by the Saturday Open Studio and do some drawing and socializing. You’ll get out in plenty of time to make it to the 7 p.m. start of the exciting Red Bull Crashed Ice whatchamacallit.

Join your fellow cartoonists at Minnesota Center for Book Arts. We’ll be at the high tables, just a little past the store. There’s a coffee shop in the building for sandwiches, snacks and beverages. Plus free, sorta slow (but free!) coffee-shop wi-fi.

*Actually, the whole metro area is buzzing about Downton Abbey or Portlandia or maybe the area is buzzing about climate change. Frankly, I can’t keep up with of all the things the area is buzzing about.
