Inspiration

  • Bread and Puppet Theater I used to volunteer in the Bread & Puppet Theater in NYC. They are like a real-life cartoon come to life, only mixed with theater.
  • There's going to be a Dance rehearsal at 6pm, so if you want to involve dancing in your comics, that's awesome!
  • Cartoonist Conspiracy SF Comic Jams! http://cartoonistconspiracysf.wordpress.com
