Thursday June 18…Day 2 of NXNE 2015. The party train zooms on, let’s all get on and see where we end up tonight.
Not NXNE related but fun…tonight’s In Session Guest will be the Ivory Hours. Come by the Pacific Junction Hotel bar at 6:30pm. Or come later to hear a DJ and Ellis Dea…it’s Girth’s NXNE Fantastic Fun!
Here’s some recommendations:
NXNE Print & Comic Fair
The Garrison
12:00 PM > 7:00 PM
There’s a yummy bonus if you read the event description to the end: “check out some of Toronto’s best print and comics artists. Curated by Patrick Kyle. Live music from Telephone Explosion and Panache Booking in the front room. Free Pizza.” Told ya…yummy bonus.
National Poster Retrospecticus
From the NXNE website: “A massive exhibit of hand-printed posters from the Austin-based travelling art show. See work by Aaron Draplin, Daniel Danger, and Toronto-based design studio Doublenaut for bands and artists like METZ, Jack White, and Wilco.”
Aaron Draplin is freshtastic…a hot mess of contradictions and joy. See?
