Unfinished Ideas Exhibition


  • Leadworks 170 Rendle Street Plymouth, England, PL1 1TP United Kingdom (map)

Coffee & Comics presents: Unfinished Ideas

Free entry – open daily

What is Unfinished Ideas?

An exhibition celebrating the sketches, experiments, abandoned stories and paused projects that make up the creative process. From pencilled comic pages to storyboards, zines, and digital drafts — Unfinished Ideas invites you behind the curtain to see where creativity really happens.

Whether it's a single frame of a larger comic that never quite landed, or an entire story arc missing its final chapter, this exhibition shows that unfinished work still has something to say.
