This weekend (April 7th-8th), NBM Graphic Novels will be attending The MoCCA Arts Festival, a 2-day multimedia event and Manhattan’s largest independent comics, cartoon and animation festival, which draws over 7,000 attendees each year.
With 400 exhibiting artists displaying their work, award-winning honorees speaking about their careers and artistic processes and other featured artists conducting workshops, lectures and film screenings, our Festival mission accelerates the advancement of the Society’s broader mission to serve as Manhattan’s singular cultural institution promoting all genres of illustration through exhibitions, programs and art education.
Appearing on behalf of NBM is T.J.Kirsch, author of PRIDE OF THE DECENT MAN.
In a sleepy New England town, Andrew Peters is born into an abusive family. As he grows older, he seems to be on the right track, using writing as his outlet – but his best friend Whitey is always around pulling him in the opposite direction. Andrew eventually lands himself in prison, and shortly thereafter, learns he has a daughter. The shock resolves him to a path of redemption and an attempt to live his life as a decent man.
T.J. will be appearing at the NBM Booth (#D147, D148) throughout the show and will be signing during the following times:
Saturday
11:30-1:00
2:30-4:00
5:30 to 7:00
Sunday
1:00-2:30
4:00-5:30
Also appearing from our sister company Papercutz is writer David Gallaher, who will be signing copies of his series, The Only Living Boy and High Moon.
All of our latest titles will be available at our table and we’ll also have looks at upcoming releases.
The 2018 MoCCA Arts Festival will take place at Metropolitan West in New York City with programming mere steps away at Ink48 (653 11th Ave).
