Paper Jam's spiritual home, the basement of Travelling Man Newcastle, is now
a fab multi-purpose art/music venue known as Nerd Hutch. Also: a couple of weeks isn't a lot of time to get much comic-making done. Result: PJCC's 2nd and 4th Thursday meeting were getting difficult to timetable amongst gigs and were hard for jammers to commit to attending consistently.
SOLUTION:
Starting in April, the Paper Jam Comics Collective will meet monthly on the 2nd Thursday of each month - still at 6.30pm and still at the Nerd Hutch at Travelling Man.
The March meetings are just a bit of shuffling around until we get to that point:
March 12th: there's
a gig in Nerd Hutch, so as a one-off Paper Jam will meet across the road at Geek Retreat (then maybe even go to the gig).
March 26th: meeting as normal (except this is the last 'official' fourth Thursday of a month).
THEN, for the rest of 2015:
9th April / 14th May / 11th June / 9th July / 13th August /
10th September / 8th October / 12th November / 10th December
all 6.30pm, at Travelling Man
And yeah, occasionally there may be other events or fourth Thursday drink-n-draws, or whatever, but those are the core dates, those are dates when maybe
stuff will get done, you can get a good chat, do a 24-minute comic, show off your latest publication, talk about upcoming events, etcetera. That's the plan, anyway.
