TODAY'S FEATURE - Blog #3233:

Tina and I are planning on attending the upcoming 3rd Annual San Gabriel Valley Comic Book Festival that is occuring the middle of  THIS month!

Here's the Press Release supplied to me by Grasiela Rodriquez, who is the Chairperson for this Year's SGV Comic Book Festival!

"Summer’s not over yet! Join the Nuvein Foundation for one last hurrah! at the 3rd Annual San Gabriel Valley Comic Book Festival!

Free admission to this event will give comic book readers and artists a place to learn from published artists to learn tricks of the trade!

The San Gabriel Valley Comic Book festival is back for a third year, taking place Sunday, September 19, 2010 from 11:00am to 5:00pm at the Club Cubano del Valle de San Gabriel (Cuban Club) in El Monte.

Comic book readers and amateur cartoonists of all ages will be interacting with artists from throughout Southern California, displaying the best in self-published comics, including works from members of the SGV Cartoonistas. There will also be workshops for aspiring comic artists!

The San Gabriel Valley Comic Book Festival is made possible through the efforts of The Nuvein Foundation for Literature and the Arts, its Events Committee and the hard-working volunteers at Nuvein Foundation. Proceeds from this event and others produced by The Nuvein Foundation go towards educational scholarships awarded to students in the creative arts and towards bringing other cultural events to enrich the quality of life in the communities of the greater San Gabriel Valley.

Refreshments will be provided by the Cuban Club along with a special appearance by the Fresh Fries truck, LA’s only gourmet French fry lunch trunk. The Cuban Club of San Gabriel Valley is located at:10960 Lower Azusa Road, El Monte, California 91731, at the intersection of Santa Anita Avenue, near the El Monte Airport. 

I saw the Featured  Participants listed on the web site, and asked Grasiela for the full list of creators that are scheduled to be exhibiting there.  Here's her reply: 

"Our artist roster this year consists of:
Rafael Navarro,
Geo Brawn IV, Raul Aguirre Jr., Javier Hernandez, Jim Lujan, Neil Segura, Grasiela Rodriguez, Michael Aushenker, Jose Cabrera, Jamie Gambell, Dan Smith, Sherm Cohen, Bernyce Talley, Lance Sawyer, Karl Altstaetter, Adonna & Arvie of Agimat, Shawn Granger, Dahveed Kolodny-Nagy/Toy Hell, John Narcomey, Rob Zailo and Acee Cruz."

She also followed up with what programs they will be having:

"We have 2 wonderful workshops in the works, <--I say that because one is by Rafael Navarro who is still working that out! Another workshop is "Drawing for Animation" by Raul Aguirre Jr., you can see and learn more of Raul on Man vs. Art <--The infamous blog."

ADDENDUM: September 14th - Additional persons who will be exhibiting there have been announced:  Dale Wilson of DWAP Productions, Aposcar Cruz, and Ted Seko.

I have blogged about several of the above creators before, (see the names with links for those posts), plus a couple are new Facebook Friends, so it will be nice to meet them in person!

I'm suggesting highly that YOU attend this comic con if you are in the Los Angeles Metro Area on September 19th.  You can't beat the admission price...that's for sure!  And after having review blogged the publications that several of them have given me at other comic cons or mailed to me...YOU are in for a treat at this Festival.  Especially since it is a smaller intimate con, so YOU can have more face time to meet, talk, and look at the publications before purchasing!

Here's the link to the event on Facebook.

And this is the link to the web site for the Festival.

Tina and I hope to see YOU there also...We'll be walking around, taking photos for this Blog, and check out the creators tables.  Stop me and say hello!

---------------------------

Thanks again, Grasiela and Javier, for inviting us up to this comic festival and for the info / pics that have been used.  I'll be sure to post a follow up blog afterwards on the event.  Plus any comic books / promos that we pick up at the Festival from the creators for possible review blogs!

PLUS: My thanks again to all of YOU reading this blog and our archived blog posts, now over 3,230 total posts in number! I do appreciate your continued reading and support of this Blog!

My thanks to those of YOU that have read today's blog post! I do appreciate that!

For those of you that didn't know me before today... I first set up as a 'dealer' at the 1972 San Diego West Coast Comic Con (SDCC) at the El Cortez Hotel. So I've been around comic conventions for a little while, LOL 

My wife Tina and I now have an on-line exhibitor (dealer) table at the first "virtual" comic con titled the "Facebook Comic Con" (FBCC)! Plus I have a chapter in a new book coming out in December of 2010, that is pictured above, "Gotham City 14 Miles"!

You can view our dealer table and interact with us there on Facebook by clicking this link, which takes you to our table named: 'Facebook Comic Con | Make It So Marketing'. 

So if YOU are a Facebook member, please 'join' our Facebook Comic Con - Make It So Marketing exhibitor table for updates, specials, links to this blog, and other wall comments that we post every day!
