Five paid apprenticeships are available, beginning in September and running through October (7 Saturday afternoon sessions, exact dates listed in the application). Students will learn about the history of the comics medium, practice drawing and writing through prompts and exercises, spend time on comics fundamentals, and then produce their own mini-comic. Students will have work time in the studio, but will also need to do some work at home. Students will display & sell their comics together at the festival taking place on Saturday, Nov. 1st, at the Seattle Design Center in Georgetown.
We’ll be accepting applications August 1- 25th, and all applicants will be notified by August 30th. Students under age 18 will need parental/guardian permission. More information will be available in the application, check back for the link!
