From Thursday, September 19 to Sunday, September 22, 2024, the first edition of ‘Treasures in Comics, Stories That Leave a Mark‘ will be held in Pimentel (SU), the international comic festival organized and promoted by the Municipality of Pimentel and the cultural association Assonanze, sponsored by the Sardinia Region and organized in collaboration with the Joyce Lussu Library System and the social cooperative Tesauro.

The fundamental idea of Treasures in Comics is to offer a multidirectional approach to comics, taking into account the plurality of genres, topics, and sensitivities present in the publishing landscape; as well as the different age groups to which a comic can be addressed.

All meetings will also be available via live streaming.
