Geek 2017: 2000 AD Original Art Exhibition in Margate

Thrill Power Comes To The Seaside

♦Running from Friday 17 February – Sunday 19 February 2017, If you know anything about artist Rufus Dayglo (Last Gang in Town, Tank Girl) then you’ll probably know that he is in possession of one Hell of a collection of original 2000AD art. And, it is Margate’s gain to have Rufus as one of their residents. Because, it is thanks to Rufus that one of the very few 2000AD 40th anniversary celebration events is happening outside of the capital, and as part of a three-day celebration of gaming taking place in Margate that weekend.

Here’s the spiel:

This bespoke anniversary exhibition of original artwork to mark 40 years of 2000 AD takes part of GEEK, a three day festival packed with spectacle, challenges, talks, workshops and hundreds of games for half-term.

Not only will you get to see original artwork from the Thrill-vaults but also meet special guest, local artist Rufus Dayglo, in a fantastic comic book workshop.

So, if you are in Margate, or close by, why not pop on by to the expo and the workshop and be stunned by the masterpieces that will be on show that weekend.

Say ‘Hi!’ from me.
