kuš! together with the Royal Embassy of Belgium and the BELUX Latvian business chamber organized the Latvian comics competition with the theme "Brussels sprouts".
Participants were asked to send a comic of maximum 4 pages. 77 people from Latvia and Latvians living abroad took part creating very interesting and various interpretations of the theme.
