2011 Osaka Minicon Recap
First, thank you for coming to Japan. Japan may have seemed like a dangerous travel destination. But maybe after reading this you might feel Japan is not so dangerous. Still, a hundred artists gathered not only from Japan but from around the world!
Fortunately this minicon was supported by Osaka Prefectural University & Sakai city. They provided the venue and assisted with payment for research funds for caricature. (We had to do an activity for ordinary people like “Retail Competition” or “Scholarly Seminar of Caricature”.) We expect those experiences will bring a new flood of interest in caricature.
Thank you to ISCA for providing a lot of ISCA goods and issues of EF. We sold and distributed them at our vendor table. They brought in $170, which we’d like to donate to ISCA.
This experience made me realize just how difficult it is to run a convention...Oops :(
Now I REALLY appreciate the board members who have run those awesome cons before. Also we’ve found many things which we will have to improve on next time.
Anyway, I hope you can meet a lot of Asian artists at this year’s annual con! See you guys in Florida!!
