    1 session: Saturday, Jan. 18th, 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.
    Grades 8-12

    The Sunday Funnies! DC! Marvel! Graphic novels! What makes a GOOD comic? If you have ever wanted to try your hand at them - or add to what you already know - this is your chance. Led by accomplished artist and Comic Con vendor Hal Papcun, you will learn about the history of comics ranging from Calvin and Hobbes to Captain America. We'll try creating characters and cartooning together, then cover the basics of plot and layout and work towards completing a comic page/strip to take home and share.

    • The time includes a half-hour lunch break - bring your own sack lunch. Limited space in the refrigerator is available.
    • All materials are included!
    • Students are welcome to bring their own sketchbooks to use for their work or to share their cartoon and comic designs with the class.
