4th Annual Denver Comic Art Festival June 2002 CALLING ALL COMIC AND CARTOON ARTISTS OF ALL AGES!!! The fourth-annual Denver comic Art Festival (DCAF), the quickly growing, one-of-a-kind creative event in the arts community is actively soliciting submissions for this summer's event. Highlander Comics, along with Heart Studio Arts & Wellness Center, and Leaping Lizard on Tennyson Street are combining efforts for this year's festival for comic art lovers. This event will be a combination of juried art showcase and related festivities of food, games and fun filled activities through the month of June. All ages are urged to participate. Awards will be given in five categories: 10 - under, 11 - 14, 15 - 17, 18 and over, and Underground. Celebrity Judges will include Shannon Wheeler (Too Much Coffee Man), Drew Litton (Denver Rocky Mountain News), Michael Jantze (The Norm), and Rich Moyer (BunnyGrenade.com, Ick). The main DCAF exhibit will be at the Heart Studio Gallery, and the underground exhibit will be at the Leaping Lizard. The ongoing mission of the DCAF is to expose the public to the ever-expanding scope of comic art styles and topic-matter and foster an appreciation and growth of the medium. This non-profit event is one-of-a-kind in the arts community. Cartoon and comic art have a large cultural impact on our society, yet are under-appreciated as an art form. Comic strips and cartoons are a craft combining drawing, coloring, composition, and writing skills. Children who like to draw cartoons are rarely encouraged. This is our challenge. Deadline for Entries is Saturday, May 25th. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES/ FORM The Heart Studio is located at 4335 W. 41st Ave., Denver (303) 480-1053. The Leaping Lizard Gallery is located at 4309 Tennyson St. Denver, (303) 455-1084. 41st and Tennyson in North West Denver 4325 W. 41st Ave. Denver, CO 80212 Contacts: Stan Yan / Chairman (720-333-3382)StanYan1@aol.com John Murphy / Co-Founder (303) 561-0995 Owner Highlander Comics and Games Micki McDonald / Co-Founder (720) 231-9469 e.d.
