Can't wait for this - "Breaking Frontiers" - an exhibition that embodies the very essence of #SmallPressDay

Curated by @brokenfrontier's @AndyWPOliver at @jambookshopuk - runs till 20th August

"a fitting tribute to the UK indie comics community"

For sure ❤️

One of our favourite people runs @jambookshopuk - he also happens to be the same person who came up with idea for #SmallPressDay 🤩

@SaHreports is excellent & has put together a stellar lineup for SPD - including making/advice workshops & Q&A session for small press creators ❤️

[Small Press Day - Saturday 19th July! @SmallPressDay]
