Running alongside the Comics Up Close conference at Sheffield Hallam University is the ‘Collectives for Change’ exhibition, showcasing the thriving new comic movement across the Arab world.
We are delighted to also be hosting this exhibition here at The University of Manchester.
You can view the exhibition in the Samuel Alexander Building glass corridor exhibition space, between 19 February-18 March 2024.
