City Of Erlangen Makes Budget Cuts For Internationaler Comic Salon Erlangen

Here's a drawback to a much-lauded and frequently European model of civic involvement in comics festivals: when the city is hurting, the festival feels the panel. This article indicates that the city of Erlangen in Germany has cut its contribution to the budget of its international Comic Salon by 50,000 Euros, leading an organizer to proclaim (in German) that this is basically not enough to live and not enough to die. Less lucky was the city's puppetry festival, whose strings were cut completely. The salon is scheduled for early June. (thanks, Stefan Dinter)
