Teens and their families are encouraged to come to the free event, which will feature special screenings of animation features, short films and cartoons from the United States and around the world. Bandai Entertainment will screen their anime including “Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack,” “Cowboy Bebop”, “Arjuna”, “Fancy LaLa”, and Cartoon Network's latest anime hit, “Mobile Fighter G-Gundam.”

“The comic festival is a way to encourage teens who do not usually visit the library to discover the many resources available here,” said Georgette Todd, manager of Young Adult Services. “It is an effort to motivate them to read, write and explore creative ways of expressing themselves. It exposes them to potential career choices in the world of comics and animation.”
