Innovation and change are strong points for Brent Thompson's campaign for Alderman of Ward 4 and to help support his cause, Happy Harbor is hosting "Sketching for a Change".

Come to Happy Harbor Comics (10112-124 St) on Sept 30 and make a donation, half of which will support Brent's drive for Alderman and half will go directly to the Bissell Center, an organization that provides an array of services such as food, clothing and shelter for those less fortunate in Edmonton's inner city!

Between 10 and 6, any donation you make gets you a slice of tasty homemade pie, a glass of punch and a custom sketch of your favourite character (or yourself or loved one) from any one of our 8 artists, including;

- nationally recognized Editorial Cartoonist FRED CURATOLO (1-3) (http://www.curatolocartoons.com) - artist on DC Comics' "Trick 'R Treat", FIONA STAPLES (12-6) (http://good-lucky.net) - quick-draw caricaturist Zee Artiste' ROBERT WOODBURY (12 to 6) (http://www3.telus.net/public/woodbury/) - from local Out of Mind Studios BRIAN GUAY (10 to 6) (http://www.outofmindstudios.com) - up-and-coming sensation PAUL LAVALLEE (12 to 4) (http://paullavallee.blogspot.com) - long-running webcomic veteran RUDI GUNTHER (10 to 6) (http://www.fuddafudda.com) - "Johnny Hoh" small-press creator TREVOR VINE (http://www.myspace.com/johnnyhoh) - local favorite DANIEL SCHNEIDER (10 to 6) (http://www.newagelegends.com) - cartooist PATRICK HENAFF (11 to 4) (http://www.patrickhenaff.com)
