ICAF Moving To Chicago For 2008

imageThe International Comic Arts Forum (ICAF) is apparently moving to Chicago for its 2008 show, which will take place at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago October 9-11. Go here to read the call for papers. Although those days are long past, many will remember ICAF as an academic conference in partnership with the early years of the Small Press Expo, providing that show some hardcore programming choices and the scholars involved an opportunity to mingle and buy and comics between lectures. The show had stayed in the DC area in recent years although it no longer had anything to do with the Expo. Chicago is of course a great comics town and a formidable academic hug in its own right. It's also a fine convention city -- with its one restaurant and one and a half bars every block -- if you don't stick yourselves out by the airport.
