Festivals Extra/Personal: CCAD’s Mix Announces For 2013

image

Robert Loss of Columbus College Art And Design announced the return of the Mix symposium for 2013 earlier this week. Subtitled "CCAD's Celebration Of Comics," it's one of those academic events that also brings in an artistic element. I'll be on hand, participating in some elements of programming. This will included an interview of/presentation with Jeff Smith, the conference's Keynote Guest. I've never talked to Smith live, so I'm looking forward to that. I will endeavor to do a good job. That event will take place September 27 at 7 PM; the entire event covers two days, the 27th and 28th.

They have a call for proposals you academics out there can download in PDF form: Mix_2013_CFP.pdf

Smith will also be exhibiting a lot of his RASL work for the first time over the weekend; that work is frequently beautiful in the originals. There will also be a comics contest, and CCAD will concurrently exhibit the paintings of Gary Panter. I heard a great many positives about the 2012 show, featuring Chris Ware.
