Charles M. Schulz, the artist who invented the Peanuts, drew the adventures of Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang for 50 years. Everything that was important to him found a way into the world of these kids (and dog). From stories of friendship, sports, adventure, politics, games and philosophy, anything could be told through this Group of friends, in a way that is funny, sometimes sad and often touching.
In our workshop you can find your own comic characters that will tell the stories you want to tell. And we will look at what‘s important to you, which themes and thoughts you want to share with the world and then find a way for you to tell them in the visual medium of comics. Students will get an introduction to making comics and we will be taking pencil to paper.
