Enjoy a creative, fun-filled day and night of sketching, writing, and designing, or stop by to root on the hardcore cartoonists that are doing this all for art.

Celebrate Halloween by joining us at our virtual Halloween party.
Enjoy good times, laughter, and camaraderie as we show off our best costumes.
Who knows, perhaps someone will frighten us with a design that includes Comic Sans, starbursts, and other spine-tingling design no-no’s.
Free and open to members and non-members of all regions.

Once upon a time on a cold October night
the Guild threw a party before all the fright.
The party was planned for the artists, designers, creatives and more
not to scare them or tell them stories of gore.
But for fun, and for games, and costumes made for the night
that might have us all, shrieking or laughing with pure delight.
Please register early and grab a spot of your own
and spend some social time with us on your computer or phone.
Now that I’m done with this rediculous ryhme
mark you calendars early to remember the time.
