international conference

The Saturday’s programme of the WOMCOM conference joins the already traditional accompanying fair programme of the Tinta Comics Festival at Kino Šiška. We will focus on artistic collectives, initiatives, and projects that foster creativity and broaden the diversity of comics scenes locally and internationally: the Serbian comics collective Stripotetke, the Croatian comics magazine Strip-PREFIKS, as well as the Ukmukfukk Zine Festival, the International Comics Festival Budapest, and the independent publisher Hurrikan Press from Hungary. Visiting female comics creators from around the world will share their knowledge and experience through masterclasses and talks, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how comics are made.
