2018-2019 Year-End Wrap-Up!
Thank you students, I heard so much love and gratitude and bonding and confidence.
Olivia says "This is first year of school where I'm going to miss everyone rather than just saying 'see you later'" and Emma told us she literally called home after orientation crying, not sure what she got herself into (she remembers what the place looked like a year ago!), and now we're hiring her, because she loves the place and we love what she has helped us become.
End of Semester Student Art Show! Friday Artwalk Dec 7!
Our first show in our new space! The 2018 students have been busting out making new work to share with you! Amazing stories and art from people dedicating the full-year to comics and graphic storytelling, right here in Gainesville! Note our NEW SPACE in the back of 722 S. Main Street!
