Thanks to your support, MIGHTYVISION is up and running at 641 South Street!
The space is now officially a comic gallery, retail and youth workshop space, at which we operate five days a week.
Two youth workshops (one on comic writing, one on comic drawing--manga in particular) are scheduled for September and we're excited for some fantastic all-ages comic art gallery openings ahead, including a show of art from the artist who currently draws Felix the Cat.
In addition to support received through GlobalGiving, this project has been backed by the Sheila Fortune Foundation, Citizens Bank Foundation and Arts on South (the organization who gives us our fantastic space down here).
You can track our ongoing progress here (www.mightywriters.org) and we'll keep you posted via GlobalGiving. We still need support to ensure that our MIGHTYVISION programming continues to develop and impact kids and visitors of all ages on South Street in Philadelphia--so spread the word!
And stop by and see us sometime soon.
With Mighty Appreciation,
Mighty Writers
p.s. One of our MIGHTYVISION features is a "Comic Guest Book," where visitors of all ages sketch their own comic art. A few samples are attached.
