COMIC BOOK MONTH!

September kicks off our new programming featuring theme months. Each month will feature a main objective which involves 3 weeks of complimentary creativity classes followed by one paid creativity camp where we work on a group project while taking a deeper dive into the theme of the month. Each student will then receive the final produced collective project. NOte - You do not have take part in the free classes to participate in the Comic Book Camp.

September is Comic Book Month and each class will feature aspects of creating our own comic book. Our Comic Book Camp at the end of the month will be a group project taking what we have learned in the previous three weeks to create one comic book collaboration. Each student taking the comic book camp will receive the printed version of our final project shipped to them.

We will post all the September videos of each class to this page to view at your leisure.


Check out this months online class line up with Lee Fairchild, naylene Justis & Ben olson.
