VCU Libraries invites graduate and undergraduate students from across Virginia Commonwealth University to enter the third annual Jurgen Comics Contest. 

The Jurgen Comics Contest focuses on telling stories of banned art as a way to consider the complex relationship between art and society and the long history of censorship. By challenging students to explore these topics through comics, VCU Libraries asserts the value of comics as a medium of expression and social commentary, and a subject for interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary study.

The website continues on with more information on how to sign up. For our interests, here's the 2022-2023 winners.
