The Jewish Comics Experience has what it takes to make it to the major league of comic conventions and I could not be more proud to be a part of it. Comic books, graphic novels, and sequential arts are amazing mediums to convey stories. This industry was founded by a group of young — mostly Jewish — creators in the 1930/40s. JewCE will keep honoring the past while promoting present-day storytellers and inspiring creators of tomorrow. It will be an inclusive journey into Jewish diversity through art and creativity.”

The JewCE convention is not only unique in its attention to the Jewish origins of and influence on the comics industry. It’s a love letter to the creators themselves, Jewish and non-Jewish, who have worked to include Jewish characters in their stories, to demonstrate Jewish diversity across the pages, and to provide a visual and cultural home for Jewish readers of all ages to feel seen, included, and embraced. At times only perceptible to those in the know, Jews have long had a home between the covers of comic books of all sorts. JewCE brings that home to light, celebrating Jewish characters and creators of all ethnicities, nations of origin, religious observances, genders, sexual orientations, and political affiliations”
