Come Jam in Minneapolis Thursday, September 3rd
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.
St Paul Jam hiatus
Due to a lack of attendance at the last St. Paul Jam, I think we should not do August and try again in September.
Any ideas?

Cartoonists: Studio Space Available in the Big Time Attic Space
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.
Bring paper to the Mpls Jam
Hi Mpls Jammers
Mike Toft and Dave Sandberg will be at the Fringe festival this Thursday so someone needs to bring paper. Hold on to the jam and I will post it in September.

One Week to Autoptic!
AUTOPTIC is next weekend! PODCASTING now!!!
AUTOPTIC–the 2 day festival of Independent culture on AUGUST 8th and 9th–is next weekend!
If you don’t know what that means–On the 103rd episode of the WAYNE GALE VARIETY HOUR podcast DANNO KLONOWSKI is joined by cartoonist, sequential art instructor, and festival co-organizer ROBERT “BOB†ALGEO to explain all!
We get into what the event is, how it differs from what your idea of a comic convention is,and have an overview of the special guests and exhibitors. DANNO and BOB also pick an Autoptic exhibitor highlight in Autoptic’s own self-defined mission statement topics of: COMICS, MUSIC, ZINE, PRINTS and ART! Â
….And BOB has to take a spelling test.
