Short Run is an annual comix & arts festival in Seattle, WA.

Short Run strengthens and celebrates Seattle’s lauded small press community by curating events throughout the year that spotlight artists and self-publishers who lack exposure and provide them with helpful resources. The annual festival is free to the public and showcases makers of art books, zines, comics, and animation; it is an alternative to large-scale commercial conventions that focuses on regional self-published works, limited editions, and handmade books.

Short Run is organized by Eroyn Franklin, Kelly Froh, and Janice Headley.
