We're excited to reveal that the theme of this yea We're excited to reveal that the theme of this year's Perth Comic Arts Festival is: ’The Island Kingdom'.

Our Creative Director, Elizabeth Marruffo was inspired by our heightened awareness of Western Australia’s unique and  isolated position in the world  saying: “Artists ofter deal with periods of isolation, working alone, tucked away like hermits in their studios. The last couple of years has seen a lot of turmoil and separation with all of us sharing these challenging and often isolating experiences.  For better or worse the comic artists of WA are in a unique position to respond to this experience and in doing so provide connection and comfort to our readers”.

“The PCAF exhibition for this year ‘Tales from the Hermit Kingdom’ will see our committee members focus on their own ‘hermit’ experience as we produce small dioramas of our studio spaces and a free local newspaper full of these unique stories. I am also really looking forward to our biggest Market Hall yet that features over 80 participants showcasing the depths of comic making talent that Western Australia has to offer. I am sure there will a tale for everyone amongst all this talent that can inspire you, and also make you proud of who we are and the journey we have been on together”
We had a super fun @perthcomicartsfestival craftin We had a super fun @perthcomicartsfestival crafting day at Milktooth with the committee last Sunday. The floor was still a mess of threads, felt and gold leaf from this term's kids classes and just look at the little love heart shaped gold leaf that Lali found attached to her nose!

The Lady and the Unicorn Tapestry ✨Crafternoon✨
A round up of the students finished works - there is always so much patience, persistence and creativity demonstrated amongst the chit-chats and laughs in our crafternoon classes :)
We thought about all the senses the original tapestry symbolises as we made tea, perfume, small bells and pocket mirrors. The last sense we looked at was 'touch' as we stitched on silk and velvet trees to our wall banner.  Some think the white unicorn represents the sixth sense of love so we made our own version of one of the white animals from the tapestry. Look at all the unicorns, bunnies, lions, cats and monkeys! 
❤️This course runs again as a 2 day Masterclass in the July school holidays❤️
