Wouldn’t it be great if we could replace some of the dull traditional text books we see in schools with something more fun and engaging? Something illustrated perhaps? Comics and graphic novels can be used as a useful tool to relay important information in an immersive way. In this workshop we will visit the Buffalo Public Library’s “Milestones of Science” exhibit and use what we learn there as inspiration for our own unique cartoon creations.
This workshop is FREE, aimed at young students aged 12–18, and limited to 12 participants.
