This year Leskovac school comics "Nikola Mitrović Kokan" operating within the Leskovac Cultural Centre will organize the event The Balkans festival of young comics creators" for the ninteenth time. The event will take place from 30th June t 2nd July 2017 in the premises of Leskovac Cultural Center and the National Museum of Leskovac.

This year the festival will also be competitive, and the best in the categories of young comic artists, illustrator, comic strip writer and theoretician in the Balkans will receive plaques with the image of Nikola Mitrovic Kokan. Also, the second best in all four categories will also be awarded with Diplomas... There will be a Diploma for the best rookie, and there will also be an award for the contribution to the Serbian comic, whose winner will be the president of the three-member jury awarding the other prizes. The received works will be presented in the Gallery of Leskovac Cultural Center and their authors will receive Certificate of gratitude for participation in the festival as well as the mention in the catalog that each participant will receive. As part of the event which will last three days, there will be several lectures, public class drawing in the lobby of the Leskovac Cultural Center, projections of animated films and documentaries, the promotion of several comic magazine (from the country and from abroad) and a book on comic books, as well as panel discussions, public interviews and round tables.

As for the propositions for participating in the competition, they are as follows: the term young author means those authors under thirty years of age, and all who meet this basic requirement are free to present their works to the jury in any of the four categories. The older authors may also exhibit their works, and they are indeed invited to do so in order to set the example for the younger artists, but they will not enter the competition for awards. ). Award-wise, only Balkan-based authors can compete, but anyone from around the world can be part of the exhibit (on the Eighteenth Balkans festival of young comics creators in 2016, for example, authors from 41 countries from six continents had their works on display). In the category of illustration you can apply illustrations in color and black and white illustrations alsike. The comic scenarios and theoretical texts should be submitted typed. One can also submit a finished and completed comic that is based on a scenario. The pages doesn`t have to be from a complete comic, and one can participate with as many works as one likes. Also, the work(s) you are submitting does not have to be done specifically for our festival or done during last year. It is only important that it has not been exhibited in The Balkans festival of young comics creators before. Note: It is important to clearly state one`s age so as to avoid all possible misunderstandings.

This notification is therefore a call for participation to all young comics authors, comic schools and comics workshops operating in the Balkans; Leskovac school of comics will do our best to be the best possible host for all guests.
