CCS hosts 24-Hour Comics this weekend!

Center for Cartoon Studies student Bryan Stone wrote in today to let us know that the school WILL BE hosting a 24-Hour Comic event this Saturday, Oct. 20 in White River Junction, Vt.

Start time is noon Saturday and the whole thing will finish by noon Sunday. I'm sitting this one out (still too tired from SPX), but I'm sure several other Trees & Hills regulars will be over there.
