Dive into the exciting world of comics and cartooning with illustrator James Foley as you learn how to bring your ideas to life on the page!

In this fun and interactive workshop, participants will explore the fundamentals of cartoon drawing and comics-making, from creating expressive characters and dynamic poses to designing backgrounds and planning stories.
