Do you like drawing manga or anime characters or pictures?
Showcase your art in the Manga Mania Art Exhibition. The exhibition will launch at our Cosplay event at Port Macquarie Library on Sunday 21 April, and will be on display until the 10 May, with community members voting for their favourite. All entries will receive a certificate and prize winners will be announced by the end of May.
If you would like to be part of this exhibition, please leave your artwork with your name, age, and telephone number (on the back) at Port Macquarie, Wauchope, or Laurieton library (no framed work please, just on paper or card) by Thursday 18 April.
Works will be on display at Port Macquarie Library (21 to 26 April), Laurieton Library (29 April to 3 May), and Wauchope Library (6 to 10 May).
