For those of you who missed the Interference Archive field trip you are in luck because the “Our Comics, Ourselves” Exhibit is also on Tumblr!
However I highly recommend visiting the archive itself if you can, during their open hours. The comic exhibit runs until April 17th and their next exhibit- a collaboration with Mobile Print Power that sounds amazing- starts on May 1st. If you are planning to go please let me know and I’ll try to get one of the archivists to connect with you while you’re there and help you look around for things related to your group project.
Lastly, here are some comic and other visually engaging/popular education projects that were discussed during our visit yesterday that you might check out:
- Fighting to Save Our Communities: How Community Land Trusts can help us take control of our buildings, neighborhoods, and futures (comic book/poster made by the NYC Community Land Initiative)
- Ta-Nehisi Coates helps a new panther leave its print (March 31, 2016)
- How NYC gets its water (with cool illustrations!) and Why NYC’s Waterworks Works (April 1, 2016)
- Anti-Eviction Mapping Project
- Real Cost of Prisons Project
