Brooklyn Book Festival

Brooklyn Book Fest 2011

I’ll be attending the Brooklyn Book Festival in downtown Brooklyn, NY on Sunday, September 18th. Raina and I will be part of a live drawing event at 11AM. Here’s the info:

11:00 A.M.
Comics Quick-Draw!

Three comic artists face off in this fast-paced contest. Drawing (literally!) from audience suggestions, NYT best-selling and ALA-notable book author/illustrator Raina Telgemeier (Smile), best-selling author/illustrator Dave Roman (Astronaut Academy), and rising star author/illustrator Laura Lee Gulledge (Page by Paige) will battle with pen and pad. And, everybody wins: finished art will be gifted to some of the lucky young people in attendance! Moderated by Calvin Reid, editor of Publishers Weekly Comics World.
Location: YOUTH STOOP.

There were also be a lot of other great cartoonists and comics content at the festival so be sure to check out their website for the complete list of programming!
