September 2025 News and Events
Dear friends,
While you all were drawing at last weekend’s Feathered Friends Sketchcrawl, a little bird told me some important news: we are nearly one month away from my favorite event of the year!
First off, yes, I can speak bird (bluebird, goose, and nuthatch are my specialty). And second, you are correct, my favorite event is SLICE.
SLICE is oh so very soon! In the meantime, we have many events to keep you busy this September. We’ve got the return of the Sticker Game with Cassi Mothwin, Manga Show and Tell at St. Louis County Library, and our monthly Drink & Draw at Alamo Drafthouse. We’ll also be tabling at our other favorite event: Tower Grove Pride!
All SLICE events are free and space is limited. RSVP to our Eventbrites to save your spot.
As always, follow SLICE on Instagram, Bluesky, and Facebook for all the news.
Sincerely,
Mr. Slice

Upcoming Events
Saturday, September 13—Sticker Game Returns
2:00–4:00 p.m. @ Urban Chestnut Grove Brewery and Bierhall.
Take on an otherworldly mission with Cassi Mothwin as they guide you through an interactive drama journaling experience. Free yourself of the guilt of piles of unused stickers by taking part in this event and finally use those sheets of stickers that commitment anxiety has barred you from placing.
Saturday, September 20—Manga Show and Tell
1–3 p.m. @ St. Louis County Library Clark Family Branch.
Join us at the library for Manga Show & Tell! This is your chance to pitch a room full of manga lovers on why they should read your absolute favorite series. Up to fifteen guests will have six minutes each to present on their selected manga. Attendees are not required to present, but are invited to take this opportunity to break out of their normal genre or comfort zone to discover new stories and art. Perhaps you’ll meet your new favorite manga!
Thursday, September 25—Drink & Draw
7–9 p.m. @ Alamo Drafthouse STL.
Join your pals from SLICE for a casual evening of drawing. Pop in for a few drawing games or stick around to chat about the craft of comics. SLICE will be hosting monthly Drink & Draws on the fourth Thursday of every month, 7–9 p.m. at Alamo Drafthouse STL, April through September. Mark your calendars!
September 27–28—Tower Grove Pride
All weekend @ Tower Grove Park, Booth B-South-37
Find us at Tower Grove Pride! Make your own FREE Pride buttons and zines at the SLICE booth (B-South-37). Support SLICE by picking up some of our Mr. Slice merch. Learn about our upcoming expo.
