Replay of Friday Night Comics with Aidan Koch: Experiments in Climate Drawing
We had a really lovely time with Aidan Koch who had us talking and drawing about climate change. What we were afraid of, what we were hopeful for, what we were doing in our communities. It meant a lot, a lot of people shared and a lot of people felt better and more connected in the end. Come take a look and share your concerns with us. We hope you have a good time enjoying some creative community and art-making!
