Fall 2015 – Comics & Graphic Novels

Venue: 1131 Mission Street

Comics & Graphic Novels

Did you grow up with a love for Calvin and Hobbes? Superman? The Watchmen? Fun Home? In the age of the emoji, we can see what comic artists have known for decades: pictures and text can exist richly alongside each other.  In this course, you will work on both your drawing and writing skills, as you create your own comics and short graphic stories. This class will also address the principles of storytelling, text versus image, and the production and distribution of printed and online comics and graphic novels. All materials will be provided.

Instructor: Holly Coley, BFA
Date: 2 class meetings / Saturdays, September 19, 26
Time: 10:30 am-1:30 pm

COVID UPDATE

In response to the current COVID-19 situation, we require that all persons continue to wear masks at all times when in the Root Division space. For the safety of our students, artists, and extended community, we also require all students to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination (or same-day negative test results) for entry to classes held indoors at Root Division.

You may bring a physical copy of your vaccination card or via digital download through the State of California Digital Vaccine Record Portal here. (You may also provide a negative test result taken before each class session. Please contact us with any questions about the types of test results accepted.)

We ask this as a show of community care and a move towards continued safety while gathering in-person.
