...WALL SIZED COMIC BOOK MURAL WILL STAR MILWAUKEE RLSHS BLACKBIRD AND THE WATCHMAN IN A FICTION STORYLINE

Motionary Comics is a collaborative art project to create a giant wall sized comic mural. The first round was held last year and riffed off of the classic fairy tale of Rumpelstiltskin. This year the comic story will be written by Tea Krulos with improvisation by the collaborating artists. The event will be held 5PM until bar close at Moct Friday, April 29.

Chang Beer
is sponsoring the event and a percentage of beer sales of Chang (and additional funds raised) will be donated to United Way.

The cast:

Producer: Kurt Hartwig
Creative director/letterer: Tea Krulos
Choreographers: Dan Schuchart and Monica Rodero
Paint crew: Carri Dahl, Andrea Toussaint, and Nathan Stuber
Illustrators: Matt Chic, David Beyer Jr., Christopher Macdonald, Pietro Norante, Dan Hernandez, and Michael Cothroll
Photography: Kelly Crandall
DJ: Dori Zori
Bar coordinator: Chad Edwards

The Watchman and Blackbird both will be making an appearance at the event, and an invite has been extended to other Midwest RLSH.

In addition, there will be a few surprises throughout the evening. The event will be well documented and photos/ video will be shared here in the future, along with media we pick up along the way.

  5. This has gotten out of hand. Perhaps you could take this somewhere else LL?

    As for Motionary Comics #2...

    I am excited about this. It will be great to see the work all come together, and I can't wait to meet all the people behind it. This is a great way to combine art with a social engagement which should help out United Way. It will also be a great way for me t meet people who are open to new ideas and want to help people.

  6. I agree with The Watchman here. I don't know what all of this craziness is about, but the comments section of this entry, (which has nothing to do with it), isn't a proper venue for this argument.

    Further comments unrelated to Motionary Comics will be trash canned.
