Comic Arts Workshop with MassArt

Tuesday, July 213:00—4:30 PM
Children's Program Room
Sawyer Free Library
2 Dale Avenue, Gloucester, MA, 01930

Join us for a unique opportunity to create art with MassArt faculty! We’ll deconstruct the comic creation process in an engaging and accessible way that applies to a wide range of skill sets. The workshop introduces the storytelling structure and starts with a simple activity where students sketch different shapes on their pages. MassArt Comic Arts instructor LJ Baptiste will demonstrate how these shapes can be fleshed out into full characters. Participants will learn techniques they can utilize to understand a character they're creating and develop their own 4 panel comic strip featuring one of their original characters.

Patrons ages 7-19 are welcome for this program. Registration is required.
