Do some research first tho...

You can hear TheComicSpot episode where Jo Waite, Bernard Caleo and I speak to the curator Beckett Rozentals here.

Participate in the 24 hour comic creation on 4-5th August.

24-hour Drawing Marathon
In 1990, American cartoonist Scott McCloud dared his friend Steve Bissette to draw a 24-page comic book in a single day. Since then, 24-hour comics have become a rite of passage for cartoonists worldwide, with thousands of caffeine-fuelled comic nerds taking up the challenge every year.

This August, the NGV invites cartoonists, comic art ninjas and compulsive drawing fanatics into NGV Studio for a 24-hour drawing marathon as part of the Inherent Vice residency. The key principle of the marathon is to encourage quick thinking and loose drawing by forcing artists to work to a serious deadline.

From 10am on 4 August to 10am on 5 August, the eight Inherent Vice cartoonists will work on a collaborative anthology, with guests encouraged to choose their own projects and do whatever it takes to finish them by morning. Artists under 18 years of age will be welcome between 10am and 6pm for a shorter marathon.

SO...

Go go go go, Gallop run shuffle, Jump giggle cycle your way there. (points for picking the reference in that one)

Jase Harper has and was chuffed to see his board.

Cheers.
