Heidi MacDonald’s MoCCA Report

The best part of
Heidi MacDonald's report on last weekend's Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art Festival is the portion about the
Harveys, which sounds like the most depressing awards ceremony ever without any outsized incident that comes right out and proclaims why. She does point out that only seven winners were on hand to accept awards, which might have had something to do with it. Based on rough estimates culled from the Harveys web site, sponsorships may have been down to the $12,000-$13,000 range (about half of that coming from publishers related to Jeff Smith). MoCCA officials claimed they were not a money maker last year with greater sponsorship activity, and would not continue if they didn't become a way of raising money for the museum.
