Comics Working Group Starting March 19
Have you been looking for accountability?
Do you need somewhere to go each week to focus on drawing?
Are you interested in being surrounded by other comics artists?
Is there a project you’re working on that you need feedback for?
We’ve got you covered! Starting Thursday March 19, our Comics Working Group will come together for 8 weeks to create comics in a shared space. The studio doors will be open from 7-9PM Thursday nights. Each week will begin with a group activity and then break off for focused drawing time.
Bring your ongoing projects! Bring your unfinished comics ideas! Bring your latest pages for workshopping! Join SAW alum, Emma Jensen, and a group of like-minded people to have fun and tell your stories!
Please note: Two Thursdays during this class will cross over with our regular community event, DRAW JAM. Meet new people, play games and connect with other comics creators!
About the instructor: Australian comics artists, Emma Jensen, came to Gainesville for the year-long intensive workshop and stayed for the passionate comics community. She has a long publication history in Australian indie-publications including Voiceworks, Going Down Swinging, and Scum Mag. Before coming to SAW, Emma worked as an illustrator, editor and community arts educator, teaching comics throughout Melbourne and rural-Victoria for organisations such as Express Media, State Library of Victoria, and Yarra Youth Services. You can read some of her self-published work online, here.
Price: Sliding scale between $85-200.
About sliding scale pricing: Please pay what you can. If you can afford to pay a little (or a lot) more, you can help us make fantastic SAW learning experiences accessible to students in need, and you’ll help our indie art school grow and thrive.
