The Indigenous Comic Con is the first-ever pop culture convention dedicated to exploring and showcasing Indigenous peoples in the worlds of mass media and popular culture. As part of the Indigenous Comic Con, the IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (MoCNA) will host a day of master class workshops for students and emerging professionals on Thursday, November 17, in Santa Fe. This is an amazing opportunity for students and emerging professionals in the field of comic books and game design to work with industry professionals. The workshops will cover areas of writing, illustration, ink and coloring, as well as tips and tricks for crowdfunding, self-publishing, and copyright issues—everything the developing professional can use to jumpstart a career in the industry!
