Students in Tom and Lauren's STORYARK workshops
(2 sessions and longer) work towards the creation of a final "mini-comic"
booklet. We show dozens of examples of these of homemade comics.
Anyone can make one and eveyone goes home with a book that they've
made!
Workshops can be tailored to any age
group and time schedules. StoryArk workshops are also perfect
for English and writing classes.
