Hello dear friend Craig Thompson
My name is Paulo Monteiro and I’m de responsible for the International Comics Festival of Beja, organized by the Beja City Hall. We are now organizing the 5th edition (Beja is a little historical village in the South of Portugal).
This year, the Festival will take place from 30 May to 14 June.
This event shows some of the most relevant movements in contemporary Comics, bringing side by side young and aspiring authors with some of the most important comics artists of nowadays.
Another important feature of the Festival is its parallel program, consisting of debates, workshops, book releases, drawing marathons, a book market, concerts, etc.
In the lasts editions we have among us authors like George Pratt (United States), Muñoz & Sampayo (Argentina), David B. (France), Gipi (Italy), Dave McKean (England), Miguelanxo Prado (Spain), Ulf K. (Germany), Frantz Duchazeau (France), Lourenço Mutarelli (Brazil), etc. (just to mentioned same foreigners), an a lot of Portuguese authors.
The Festival is a very informal event, with authors from all artistic tendencies. It’s considered one of the two major events concerning comics in Portugal.
I’m writing to ask if you can give me your e-mail address, because I would like to make you an invitation.
Can you do that? I will be very grateful…
Warm regards
Paulo Monteiro
