Lulu Award Nominations!

The Lulu Awards bring attention to the best, most women-friendly and reader-friendly work in comics, recognize the work of women comics creators of the past, and direct attention to the year’s most promising new female talent. In the past, the Lulu Awards have only been nominated and voted on by members. Last year, we opened up the process to non-members with great response. This year, we’re bringing voting back to being a privilege shared by members of Friends of Lulu with the option to nominate open to non-members.

So, everyone can nominate the female creators they know need recognition for their hard work- but in order to make sure those creators win the award? Well, then sign up for membership with Friends of Lulu, either online or at our NYCC table and submit your ballot when the voting process begins!
