A new collaboration between Guild Hall and Loot Comics, this five-week workshop series explores the thrill and drama of storytelling and character development through the art of Comic Books.
Children will delve into the world of superheroes and far-off places, reading, writing, acting, and illustrating the genesis of various stories, and create their own imaginative and action-packed comic books through the lens of their own lives. Encouraging every child to reflect on their past, question their present, and imagine their own future.
All sessions are led remotely via Zoom by Loot’s “Professor Joe.” Each child is provided with a kit of materials for the entire series – available for pick-up at Guild Hall the weekend of January 15.
This series is produced as part of Guild Hall’s Student Art Festival 2021: Past-Present-Future.
