So, stop on by if you’re local, or drive for several hours if you are not.  See you there!


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
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.
Big Time Attic hosts our monthly jam meetings at Diamond’s… they will be supplying us with a big old plate of pastries or something. Thanks fellas!

“Boo!” and stuff. Join us for drawing and socializing at Minnesota Center for Book Arts.
In the Halloween spirit, you will be able to take part in the recording of a little bit of Ken Avidor and David Steinlicht’s forever in pre-production movie “Bicycle Zombie Slayer Girls.” Be a zombie and get killed. No zombie make-up needed, please. Dress in regular clothing. We will be providing nifty paper-and-paint make-up and effects for four or so participants. No messy liquid blood or entrails bits to clean off your clothing afterward. Any recording will take place in the ally out back of MCBA, weather permitting.
Sat., Oct. 31, noon to 4 p.m., MCBA Bindery (the high tables)
