Comics come alive at Speaking to Pictures! 

Speaking to Pictures is our ongoing reading series in which we get writers to perform their work with the aid of pictures (it's in the name). This time around we are inviting only comic artists, to coincide with The Festival of the Photocopier 2026, the biggest and best zine festival in Melbourne!

Featuring:

Fionn McCabe

Scott Wrigg
