Now in its fourth year, the Manga, Art, and Graphic Novel Expo for Teens: from Anime to 'Zines was created to reach out to today’s youth and serve as a way for teens to show off their creative talents in a community atmosphere.

The original intent of the fair was to create a teen art and photography show. However, that idea seemed a bit old fashioned and the birth of an anime, graphic novel, comic books and focused art show was born.

The show has averaged between 350-500 guests per year and continues to grow.
