Zines and Manga Mania

It's National Library Week, so maybe this is a good time to visit your local library. Free computers, free books, and lots of great programs, like movies and DIY stuff--all for FREE!

There are several cool Manga and Anime events going on at the Sacramento Public Library this month, and if you don't live in Sacramento, you can probably find several cool Manga and Anime events going on at your local public library.

At the Rancho Cordova branch on Sundays at 3, you can watch old and new Anime and Anime Music Videos, play CCGs, draw, and socialize.

Or, check out this description of an Anime party at the Walnut Creek branch: "Hang out and discuss your favorite manga while enjoying Japanese snacks and making cool stuff. Cool stuff includes, but is not limited to: bookmarks, greeting cards, candy sushi, and origami." 3:35 Wed. April 21. I think they mean candy AND sushi, not sushi-flavored candy. But I could be wrong.

Also on Wed. the 21st, Colonial Heights is having a Manga party at 4:00.

And along the same lines, for those interested in self-publishing their Manga artwork, there are a couple of SPL programs on creating your own zine: tomorrow night, 6:00 at Orangevale branch, and Saturday the 17th, 3:00, at Valley Hi-North Laguna in the Elk Grove area.
