In support of Dominican Comicbooks and its Artists
Since 2015, Cultura Cómic RD has been dedicated to ensuring that the conditions exist, so that the Dominican comicbooks and its artists can proliferate in the Dominican Republic.
Each donation, no matter how small, drives us closer to our goal of turning Dominican Comic Books into a plural cultural product. As the most accessible narrative medium of all, Comic Books are a highway to make Dominican youth more cultured.

About Us
Cultura Cómic RD is an initiative that seeks to turn Dominican Sequential Art into a plural cultural product. It was founded on May 5, 2015, by Winser Espinal.
It all started with the purpose of sharing with people related to the interest of its creator in sequential art (Comicbooks, Graphic Novels, Manga, etc.) and its other manifestations through media, but as its founder learned more about the community of local sequential artists, wanting to support the proliferation of such an enriching medium in the Dominican Republic became inevitable.
Goals
Unite the community of Dominican Artists
It is pointless to support sequential art if we do not forge ties in the community of local illustrators and writers.
Encourage the creation of Comics in the Dominican Republic.
Comicbooks and Graphic Novels are the purest manifestation of Sequential Art and, as a medium, they open the doors to a highly enriching form of expression for artists.
Give access to opportunities for intellectual and economic growth to local artists.
In a country where the masses are just beginning to give artists the respect they deserve, there is still a long way to go before each artist can make a living doing what they are passionate about.
