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.

Midnight







Our good friend Martin Coote came in and did a 5page 5hr comic. A man living out a Pixies song. A good effort, we feel.

After a quick last run to the supermarket to get (frankly) audacious crisps, I came back to discover Laura drawing with a twig, Amy staring at her knees and Rob Fresson waiting angrily for aforementioned crisps.



We hope the next few hours will be just as facially entertaining. More updates to follow throughout the night.

    Don't go stir crazy ya'll, go draw crazy.

    Thanks for posting my comic, minor picky point pages three and four should be swapped around for the comic to make sense.

    I look forward to catching up with the overnight progress in the morning.
