The Falmouth 24hr Comic

10.30 am Tuesday 24th of November - 10.30am Wednesday 25th of November

The Poly, Falmouth

On the 24th of November a group of artists, illustrators and photographers will be challenging their creativity and stamina. With no preparation and very little sleep, they will have just 24 hours to complete 24 pages of illustrated narrative inspired by a local story

The event is open to the public to see the artists working and view the pages as they are completed. There is even opportunity to challenge yourself to create a timed comic.

The Falmouth 24hr Comic is funded by FEAST, a new programme to make great art happen in Cornish villages and towns. Their main focus is to bring communites together to take part in creative activities.

The results will be displayed at The Poly until Saturday the 28th on November.

There will be a follow up exhibition at The Soup Galley, Truro in December.

"Since I first saw Frank Frazetta’s paintings cover my dad’s Conan novels, I have wanted to be an illustrator. My dream has always been to work for 2000ad as that was the comic I most loved as a child. I have had some degree of experience creating a mini comic on Marxism for my sociology tutor in sixth form and countless birthday cards. I really think this competition will challenge my un-tuned skills at visual narration."
