Every year the MCAF gets better and better and we are tireless in our pursuit of our mission, the foremost of which is to promote Quebec comics.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this goal in mind, we are pleased to announce the creation of a Programming Committee<\/strong>. This committee will have the mandate to develop and prepare a unique, diverse and interesting programing slate for the Festival that reflects the broader cultural moment. All the people chosen have been involved with the Festival for several years and are important individuals in the Montreal comics community.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
