Our project aims to contribute to the growing field of graphic novels in Slovenia by translating, publishing, distributing quality titles from diverse European languages. The much needed promotion of these works will be done by utilising events-as-promotion strategy, audience cultivation and development, market development. The project is about graphic novel translations to Slovene, and about smart market and audience development, required to make an impact in a small but growing market. Our key pints include: the publishing of high quality graphic novels tackling minorities issues and similar societal messages, of high literary and aesthetical value, translated from EU languages, 5 tailored creative events celebrating their publishing, 18 audience development events and workshops, market development framework (pop-up bookstore setup, sales agent set up, visibility on fairs, supporting package for graphic novel authors. Their impact is to improve the graphic novel offerings, cultivate audience’s reading culture, improve long-term market conditions, boost graphic novel reputation and credibility as a lively vocal genre.
