From Comics and Conversation

**Comics & Conversation** is a relaxed meetup with dedicated time to read comics, followed by time to hear from those in the industry, and socialize with other fans. Bring whatever you’re currently reading, or finally crack open something that’s been sitting in your backlog. After reading, we’ll have optional group activities like pitching a favorite recent series or comic, casual group discussions, and occasional book swaps and special guests. There’s no pressure to speak, perform, or know everything, just hang out and enjoy comics with other people who are into them. Before the meetup, feel free to stop by our partner shop right across the street, **Action City Comics**, to grab something new to read or browse their excellent selection.

**NEW LOCATION:** OMG NYC (Origami Meetup Group! New York City) is a group for people to come together and share in the beautiful art of Origami - an ancient art of folding various mediums, most commonly paper. The word comes from the combination of the Japanese verb oru (to fold) and the noun kami (paper). Other materials often folded are fabric, wire mesh, sheet metal, tissue, thin plastic, cardboard, and straws. We meet as a group to teach each other new models and share paper, books, and tips. This meeting is free and open to all level of folders from beginners to advanced. There will be free paper available to share. You can bring your own paper and books, so you can just show up and fold! If you have models you would like to learn, or teach, let us know and we will try our best to accommodate. OMG NYC's WTF (Weekly Tuesday Folders) meetup is now located at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library at 455 5th Avenue. The meeting is on the 3rd floor in room 303. Registration is strongly recommended. You can go to the website [bit.ly/omgorigami](bit.ly/omgorigami) and register for the date you will be attending. Seating is limited so those who register for the event are given priority. Food is not allowed in this library except on the 7th floor. Covered drinks are allowed. The library policy for this meetup is that it is for adults only.
