Description:

Do you have the beginnings of a graphic novel but need some help getting it off the ground? Do you have a story, fiction or nonfiction, you’ve always wanted to tell using comics? Is your cartooning stuck in a rut, ready to move up to another level? Put everything else aside and only work on your comics for a week straight! Workshop instructor Paul Karasik is a cartoonist (The New YorkerCity of Glass), a comics scholar (I Shall Destroy All The Civilized PlanetsHow To Read Nancy), and a renowned teacher who really knows how to take good cartoonists and make them better. During the five-day workshop, students will participate in lectures, collaborative exercises, book discussion sessions, events, and group critiques, with the goal of producing the first draft of a longer comics project. This is the on-campus session of the Graphic Novel workshop. For the online session, look here.
