Enter BD & Comics Passion Nationwide Contest!

Posted: February 21, 2013

Calling all comics devotees: BD & Comics Passion is back for the third time at the Institut français in South Kensington, London from May 30th to June 2nd 2013, in association with Comica Festival! Workshops, live drawing, concerts and movies galore are on the agenda, with some of the greatest writers and illustrators.

And since you love comics, why not make one yourself? If you’re aged 7 to 17 and live in the UK, you can participate in our nationwide contest and stand a chance to win amazing prizes! Whether you make it on your own, as a class project, or with friends…All you need to do is design a comic book full of creativity where the food you love - or hate - most is the centrepiece… Anything can happen: a crazy scientist invents a new smell for Brussels sprouts? We love it! The adventures of Super Cucumber? Go for it! The discovery of a chocolate planet? We’ve been dreaming about it! But careful now, the title and cover of your comic are important, as much as the story and drawing…

I will be joining a panel of experts who will choose the three most inventive and achieved applications. The winners will get amazing prizes, all presented during an astonishing prize ceremony at the Institut français in London, during the Festival. Deadline for entries is Thursday 9 May 2013 at midnight. For more information about the rules and to obtain the entry application form, contact 020 7073 1345 or bdl[at]institutfrancais.org.uk or visit the BD & Comics Passion website. Have a go and best of luck!
