SPX 2024 Banner

SPX Announce the Expansion of our Workshops track of Programming.


Due to popular demand, SPX is expanding its workshops to a second room, allowing us to have more workshops as part of the show. There will be 18 workshops over the two days of SPX.


These workshops are free and open to any participants. They're aimed at a wide variety of ages and skill sets, from kids just starting out to experienced cartoonists looking to sharpen their skills with a master class. In response to last year's enthusiastic response, we will also have two figure drawing workshops featuring model Babs New(d). (18+ only, please.)


Graduates and representatives of the Center For Cartoon Studies (CCS), the Sequential Artists Workshop (SAW), California College of the Arts (CCA), VisArts, and the School of Visual Arts (SVA) will be on hand to lead many of these workshops.



Here are a few highlights of this year's workshops:

  • Roll The Dice! Comics Storytelling Via D20 with Miss Lasko-Gross
  • Lettering WTF? with Tom Hart
  • Three Is A Magic Number: Make An Experimental Comic with Matt Madden
  • Gag Cartoon Crash Course with Sofia Warren and Hilary Campbell



You can view and sign up for any of the 18 workshops at this year's show here on the SPX web site.


Any questions on the workshops, please send them to rob.clough@smallpressexpo.com

Small Press Expo (SPX) is the preeminent showcase for the exhibition of independent comics, graphic novels, and alternative political cartoons. SPX is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit that brings together more than 500 artists and publishers to meet their readers, booksellers, and distributors each year. Graphic novels, mini comics, and alternative comics will all be on display and for sale by their authors and illustrators. The expo includes a series of workshops, panel discussions and interviews with this year's special guests.


The Ignatz Award is a festival prize held every year at SPX recognizing outstanding achievement in comics and cartooning, with the winners chosen by attendees at the show.
