Join us on May 20 and 21 for the Art Gallery of Alberta’s 2nd Annual Comic and Zine Market, featuring local artists showcasing amazing comics, zines, and multiples being made in the province. Come by between 11am and 5pm and explore our talented vendors and their one-of-a-kind works! This market is taking place in the entrance of the AGA and is free to experience and shop. We have grown in our second year, and will be offering a handpicked selection of incredible artists as well as mini art activities to participate in.
This market is organized to showcase the talented local artists who work in comics, zines, multiples, and other print media. Admission to our exhibitions are not included. If you would like to visit the exhibitions while at the AGA, please visit our front desk. Our galleries will be open all day for you to experience and enjoy for the price of general admission.
