A crowd admires the AIGA Philadelphia "Graphic & Novel" exhibit.
The May exhibit at AIGA Philadelphia's Space gallery features local comic book artists on its walls. "Graphic & Novel" runs through Sunday, May 31 and explores how artists with different aesthetics use sequential art to tell a story.
The artists featured include M. Jacob Alvarez, Art Baxter, Alex Eckman-Lawn, James Heimer, Beth Heinly, John Karpinski, William Kees, Jeff Kilpatrick, Greg Klein, Christine Larsen, Susan Mangan, Chris McDonnell, Kelly Phillips, Dave Proch, Mike Sgier and Cyn Why.

Held in the intimate Space gallery, frames of the artists' work are displayed around the room. Some look like traditional comic pages and others use a single panel to exemplify the work. Artwork and comic books are also for sale in the gallery.
