The Introduction of Taiwan Comic Base
In order to foster Taiwanese comics industry, the Ministry of Culture renovated the old building located on the four-storey of the connected building of No. 36 and No. 38, Huayin Street, Taipei City, to make it the first comic base in Taiwan. It serves as the venue for interaction, cross-domain matchmaking, exhibition and marketing for Taiwanese creative comics.
Taiwan Comic Base will plan exhibitions irregularly, in order to make the public more properly understand Taiwan Comics, and arrange comic artists a space to produce works. In addition, it will set up cross-domain comics matchmaking meeting, and workshops in order to provide an environment for Taiwan comic artists to produce works and enhance their abilities and productivity, all of which will boost the development of Taiwan comics industry.
