Emanata: A comics anthology
Showing Commencement Weekend and throughout the summer.
Emanata, a comics anthology, was started by illustrator and comics artist Chris Kindred in 2014 with Weird, Vol. 1. Emanata is a student-run publication dedicated to uplifting the comics community here at VCU and the greater Richmond area by providing avenues for comics artists to publish their work in an anthology. The staff of Emanata works with contributors to amplify their skills through a personal one-on-one editorial process. It is a registered organization at VCU under the Student Media Center, publishing an anthology annually in print and online. Emanata distributes locally on VCU campus and in conferences and participating stores in the Richmond area. Emanata participates in the annual Small Press Expo in Bethesda, Maryland. This year Vol. 4, Mirage, will be released April 16 at 5 p.m. in the Depot, featuring a cover illustration by Sishir Bommakanti. Emanata has a four stage editorial/submissions process beginning with script submissions. The process begins each November. VCU students, alumni, and faculty are welcome to submit. (This exhibition first ran in the spring, through April 21.)
