3rd Thursdays from 6pm-10pm: Sketchies! a monthly comic drawing night hosted by Sarah Maloney ($0-5, NOTAFLOF)
Here is how it works:
2) Turn in your page to Maloney’s box plus the sliding scale fee by the end of the night
3) Come back next month and pick up your copy of Sketchies, a zine that includes everyone from the previous month’s comic.
**Only people that turn in a comic will get a copy, no extra copies are made or sold! So if you collaborate on a comic, you will only get one physical zine back**
