Comics For Teens Ongoing Group!
A Creative Space for Young Artists!
Do you have a teen who loves comics? Whether they’re just getting started or already deep into creating their own stories, Comics for Teens is the perfect place for them to develop their skills, meet fellow young artists, and have fun!
Teens will learn all the comics devices they need in order to be a successful cartoonist. Lettering, page layouts, coloring, penciling, thumbnailing, writing, and everything else a teen could want to learn about comics. Each class is a standalone, meaning there is no requirement to attend ALL monthly classes.
Flexible Payment Options
We understand that every family's budget is different, so we offer a Pay What You Can model:
Single Sessions: $20-$35 per session. Choose the dates that work best for you!
Full-Access Pass: $100–$300—Ideal for those planning to attend regularly and save. Since the first class has passed (March 30), this pass grants access to any remaining classes this year. Simply choose a start date that works for your teen and a payment amount that fits your budget. You only need to select one start date and pay once.
You can also select multiple amounts if you’d like to donate extra to help us support our mission!
