If you live in NYC, or just plan to be in the area later this week, you might be interested in attending The Jewish Graphic Novel reception and program. Featuring Peter Kuper, Joe Kubert and others in what appears to be an audience/panel discussion group, it’s being held at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Museum on April 26th. Could be a nice chance to meet and listen to some pretty prominent creators in a smaller setting than is normally possible.

This exhibit presents original drawings from six prominent Jewish graphic artists – the late Will Eisner, Miriam Katin, Joe Kubert, Peter Kuper, James Sturm, and J.T. Waldman, exploring the themes of anti-Semitism, Holocaust, belief, and survival.

Admission is apparently free with a photo ID. Full info here.
