Draw your own comic page!

Join storyteller and cartoonist Zeke Peña as he teaches participants how to create their own comic book page!  Students will learn the basics of crafting comics with hands-on instruction from Zeke, illustrator of the award-winning titles My Papi Has a Motorcycle and Photographic: The Life of Graciela Iturbide.  Most recently, Zeke provided the illustrations and cover artwork for Jason Reynolds' Spider-Man novel, Miles Morales: Suspended. 

This workshop is adaptive for all skill levels from beginner to advanced, though a basic understanding of drawing is helpful.  Supplies will be provided, but seating is limited and registration is required. Registration opens September 14 at 7 a.m. 

This program is part of our 2024 True Lit Fayetteville Literary Festival!
