MoCCA Festival Announces Programming

I'm probably the last person to notice this, but here's next weekend's Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art Festival's programming. The MoCCA Festival is one of the two or three top arts, indy and alternative comics gathering in North America during the calendar year. General information here.

Saturday, June 23

* 10:15-10:55 AM: Paul Karasik on Fletcher Hanks

* 11:00 AM-12:15 PM: D+Q Cartoonists' Showcase (Gabrielle Bell and Anders Nilsen)

* 12:20-1:25 PM: Applying for a Xeric (Cosponsors: The Center for Cartoon Studies, Xeric Foundation)

* 1:30-2:35 PM: Festival Award: Alison Bechdel

* 2:45-3:55 PM: Keith Knight

* 4:00-5:00 PM: Jeffrey Brown

* 5:05-6:10 PM: Lauren Weinstein

Sunday, June 24

* 10:30-11 AM: Minx Comics: The Face of Modern Fiction

* 11:00-11:40 AM: Austin Grossman (reading from his novel, Soon I Will Be Invincible)

* 11:45 AM-12:45 PM: Reportage, Memoir and Comics David Axe, Brendan Burford, and Greg Cook

* 12:50-1:55 PM: AWP Roundtable (Gabrielle Bell, Alex Holden, Tom K., Jon Lewis, Aaron Renier, and Karen Sneider)

* 2:00-3:00 PM: Kim Deitch

* 3:00-3:55 PM: Craig Yoe

* 4:00-5:00 PM: Joe Matt

* 5:05-6:05 PM: Nordic Animation Screening

That's kind of an odd list, and nothing here says must-see the way Jonathan Lethem interviewing Dan Clowes did a couple of years ago, but certainly Alison Bechdel on Saturday and Kim Deitch on Sunday are really solid.
