A belated but incredibly heartfelt Happy Birthday to Beth Accomando!! You’ll know as the host of many amazing art and culture programs on (including the award-winning podcast “Stripper Energy”, go check it out).
💥
Beth though is also a tireless defender and suporter of the arts in all she does. Two of our favorite photos of her include some of our recent interns, because she is the coolest, nerdiest person you’ll meet in SD and it’s a privilege to get to introduce her to aspiring artists.
💥
Beth, we love you and all you do. Happy Birthday!!!

(And how cool is that first photo? That gives us ideas… hmmmm….)

Here at Little Fish we believe that there is a place for comics everywhere, and few things embody this like the Nature Comics done in partnership with Loma Portal Elementary!
💥
Working with three classes of amazing third graders and their incredible teachers we helped them turn information they’d learned about nature and about Earth Day and integrate them into four panel comics. How cool are these?!?
💥
Little Fish wants to recognize Loma Portal PTA for its initial funding, and to Reyna Turner for tirelessly putting this project together, year after year! We also want to give immense thanks to for their funding of this project and for their incredible support of the popular arts around San Diego. Supporting them helps support the present and future of the arts in San Diego. Please check them out!
💥
Little Fish Comic Book Studio is available for workshops and talks all year long, contact us for more info! (Well, maybe not during , we’re a little busy then!)

Every month here at Little Fish, we have a Comic Savvy, a community event where folks come together, talks comics and break bread. Not all Savvy’s are built the same.
🎤
This past weekend we had Zach Norris in, signing his new zine CREAM (Comics Rule Everything Around Me) and discussing hip-hop, music, and intersections with comics.
🎤
It was an exceptional evening! We had parents and families in. We had industry folks in. We had professors in from SDSU. It was glorious! Zach, congrats on the book (first of many!), and San Diego, thanks for showing up! For comics, the arts and community!

Comics Rule Everything Around Me, indeed
