Minneapolis Open Studio at MCBA on Saturday, January 5

Minneapolis Saturday Open Studio

If you need more Conspiracy time after the frosty first-Thursday jam, come on down to the open studio on Saturday, January 5. Meet, talk and draw with a few of your fellow cartoonists at Minnesota Center for Book Arts. We’ll be at the bindery (high tables).

Hopefully the recently resurrected coffee shop will still be open. If not, there’s a convenience store across the street. There are handy outlets nearby for your electrical devices, plus coffee-shop wi-fi.

Saturday, January 5, from 12:00 pm to 4:00 p.m., bindery (high tables)

This is an open studio — all are welcome.

Happy Tenth Birthday to Us! Come Celebrate at the Jam Tonight in Minneapolis! (December 6th)

event, Events, jam, Minneapolis, mn

Holy cow! It’s our tenth anniversary! Let’s draw, yes?

Comics from our first jam in December 2002 can be seen here.

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.

Dr. Dan McNamara’s Nematode Pamphlet Project

Good Causes, Opportunities, Projects

Conspirator Dr. Dan McNamara (founder of the currently inactive Mini-Comics Co-op) has successfully funded his kickstarter to tell the world about nematodes using cutting-edge pamphlet technology. That, however, does not mean you will not want to support his noble efforts. You still have a week to support his cause. Go here to learn more, and illuminate yourself by viewing the video below.
