Cartoonist Conspiracy June Jam Session

Yesterday I went to the Cartoonist Conspiracy Jam Session. They happen every first Thursday of the month at Diamond's Coffee Shoppe in northeast Minneapolis. I had heard of the Conspiracy a while ago, but finally made a contact through Bud Burgy during MicroCon. I finally made it to my first jam, collaborated with about twelve other artists on a sixteen page mini-comic, had a vanilla French soda, practiced my lettering, and sat in awe of the great talent that was assembled in that small room. I also ran into Steven Stwalley, a former classmate from the Art Institutes International and, I believe, one of the founding members of the Conspiracy. Anyhow, I was invited to a party later this month at Diamond's on June 29th. There will be live art, drinks, and food. I was told to invite anyone interested, so if you read this, you are invited! I'm definitely going to be there, unless I am completely bed-ridden. Check out the website at cartoonistconspiracy.com. I'll have more details on the party later on as well as some of the panels I drew for the mini-comic when I get access to them.
