The Gosh! Comics and Broken Frontier Drink and Draw In-Person returns for its fifth revived outing at our new venue of The Royal George on Friday, October 31st, 2025. And this time we have a Halloween Special with guest artists Zen K., Shane Melisse and Mark Stafford.
Again, don’t worry if you’re not London-based, our online version still happens regardless. Our reborn “real world” event though continues the past tradition of rotating guest artists alongside our new artist-in-residence Mark Stafford. Co-hosts are BF’s Andy Oliver and Gosh!’s Will Humberstone. The evening starts at Gosh! at 6.30pm with the three rounds of themed drawing taking place in The Royal George from 7pm onwards. Please note: seating is limited and priority will be given to those who meet at the shop. Work from the featured artists will be on sale on the evening.
