Perth Comic Arts Festival is a volunteer-run not-for-profit founded to celebrate and support the craft of comic arts. We’ve grown over the past eight years into a larger professional organisation with year-round programming and partnerships to better support our tremendous community of creators and readers.
As technology evolves, so do the options available to produce comics. PCAF embraces new tools, especially if they can save creators from some of the physical toil that is required of such a laborious art form. But in the case of generative artificial intelligence,* as part of our responsibility to our community, we must take a formal stance.
The Market Hall is a celebration of the comic making community from across WA and beyond, and every year we’ve been thrilled to welcome more and more creators in to join us.
This year we’re pleased to announce that the Market Hall (Sunday July 28th) will be joining Academy Day (Saturday July 27th) in being hosted at the State Library of Western Australia, which means we’ll have even more room for EVEN MORE COMICS!
Follow the link below to get your application in before midnight on February 29th, and don’t hesitate to get in touch with us via email at markethall@pcaf.org.au if you need any help or have any questions!
