Neighborhood Comics Sequential Artist-in-Residence Program

Need a dedicated space to create your comics? Want to share your work with a wider audience? If so, our sequential artist-in-residence program may be for you!

We get questions every day from customers about what goes into producing sequential art: Comic books, graphic novels and the like. We decided the best way to answer those questions is to show them with a dedicated space in our store for artists to work on their projects.

Our artist-in-residence program is available in one-month blocks. Selected artists must be present and creating sequential art in some form (comics, storyboards, layouts, etc – physical or digital) on-site for a minimum of three scheduled visits per week totaling 10 hours or more. The artist will be available to set their own schedule within those parameters. Artwork created in-store must be family-friendly in both subject matter and dialogue. The artist is expected to answer customer questions in a polite and professional manner. Artist must be a current Savannah resident age 18+ and abide by our COVID-19 protocols.

Neighborhood Comics will provide a drafting table, adjustable chair, power outlets, a ton of natural light and a dedicated retail display to showcase the artist’s work. The artist will keep 100% of proceeds from their sold merchandise during the residency term. Access to the studio space will only be provided during store hours.
