SAW Comics: Teen Classes Return to Gainesville this Summer!


Hi Reader!

Our Teen Graphic Novel Classes are returning this summer, both ONLINE and IN-PERSON in Gainesville.

JOIN PAT AULISIO IN GAINESVILLE, JUNE 20

Black and white drawing of abstract character saying, "It's great" and "I can do stuff like this."

In the first week of this comics-making class, we'll build basic comics creation skills through exercises and short projects.

Students will learn cartooning techniques and tools, design their own characters, practice drawing action, backgrounds and objects, and explore how to tell great stories in comics form.

In the second week, we will focus on one long project and the creation of a student-edited anthology. This is a fun, fast-paced, hands-on creative learning experience designed especially for teens and tweens.

Sign up for one or both classes today!
