May 1st – May 31st, 2025
Welcome to the inaugural Nib and Ink Fest! We have a ton of incredible events planned for the month of May, ranging from panels on how to improve your comics craft to portfolio reviews! All streamed events are digitally broadcast live via Zoom. The Zoom rooms are moderated and free to join for EVERYONE, so hop on in to watch and interact with the panelists and your fellow viewers! If you’re unable to join via Zoom, we also have stream mirrors set up on our YouTube.
Instead of registering for events, each event’s Zoom link will open up to the public a few minutes before start time, so be sure to check each event on its date to attend!
Anyone can find a basic step-by-step guide to making comics, but how do you create comics and manga that truly make the reader FEEL something? Comic creators Michelle Stanford (Centralia 2050) and Matt McEwan (Ruin) break down how they use art, lettering, layout and sound effects to imbue every part of their comics with story. Learn how to take your comic and manga storytelling skills to the next level!
