Creating Comics is a great class for children who enjoy drawing and who like to tell a story with pictures.

Children, ages 8 to 13, learn to create comics and at the same time learn more about how to create and structure a narrative. Students learn to express action and emotions with their drawings. At the last class, students take home a finished comic. The class meets from 4:15 to 5:45 p.m. on four Thursdays beginning Jan. 31.

Teacher Ryan Burns is an accomplished artist and experienced teacher; he is working on his master’s degree in the School of Art. He taught Creating Comics in fall 2012.
