Small Press Day at Gosh! Comics 2022
Small Press Day is back for its seventh year running, and we’re proud to be running several signings throughout the day representing some of London’s most celebrated independent creators! Come join us all on Saturday 13th August 2022, 12-4pm, to celebrate the lovely small press world of comics.
Created back in 2016 by cartoonist David Ziggy Greene, Andy Oliver of Broken Frontier and Amneet Johal of Alternative Press, Small Press Day was designed to support the DIY and self-publishing comics scene of the UK. On the day, shops all over the country take part by hosting their own special events and highlighting their local small press talent. At Gosh! we'll be arranging four hourly signings with a total of 16 fabulous creatives.
Kicking things off at 12-1pm will be the amazing Kayla Lui, Beatrice Mossman, Lily Blakely and J Webster Sharp. From 1-2pm will be the incredible Lando, Gareth Brookes, Shane Melise, Olivia Sullivan and Claude TC. Following that at 2-3pm are the lovely Mike Kennedy, Molly Stocks, Patrick Wray and Simon Moreton. And to round things off for the day at 3-4pm will be Sean Azzopardi, Douglas Noble, Fraser Geesin and Mark Stafford.
The day will run in a similar fashion to a mini festival. All of our fabulous guests will be selling their comics and signing in-store. Throughout the course of the day, they will also be collaborating on a jam zine, which will then be printed and available for free towards the end of the day.
We’re so excited to be taking part in this special event which makes its triumphant return to the physical world. And with our absolutely cracking line-up of creators, we’re certain you’re excited too! So make sure to pop down to the shop on Saturday 13th August from 12-4pm.
