Cartoon Allies has a brand spanking new site! If you're still using this one, please refer to cartoonallies.com now for all updates and information! This site will still be around for the sake of history and where we all began as allies, but no longer for fresh posts or new information.

I look forward to celebrating the 2016 Fall semester with you at SVA!

Operation: Fresh Meat!

4/29 • 6:00 PM-9:00 PM • the Student Center


Howdy Allies!

This week is especially exciting because it's the week of one of Cartoon Allies most awesome events of the year: Fresh Meat!

Fresh Meat is SVA’s annual in-house comics fair, where the school’s talented students have the opportunity to exhibit their self-published comics and prints. From 6-9PM on Friday, April 29th, the SVA Student Center (217 E 23rd St) will be transformed into a bustling marketplace of unique work.

This event is free and open to the public, and will be hosted in Manhattan at the SVA Student Center located at 217 East 23rd Street. Fresh Meat has been the annual highlight of SVA’s cartoonists and illustrators for over a decade, where students have the opportunity to exhibit their self-published comics and prints. 

   This event is for anyone from high school students/prospective Cartoon Allies members to current SVA students and alumni! All are welcome.

For more information on the wonders of SVA's Fresh Meat comic's fair, visit the Facebook event page. 

There will be no meeting in 703G this Friday, instead please come enjoy all of what Fresh Meat has to offer in the Student Center at 6! We hope to see you there!
