Learn the art of graphic novel publishing

For this 4-part workshop series, we invite local artists to share their knowledge on the creative process when creating comics. The fourth session will be hosted by Santiago Casares, who will discuss his comics and how they were published while sharing how participants can use similar resources to take the next step in mass producing their own comic work.

This workshop is part of a 4-part graphic novel series. Each event builds on the previous events but can be attaneded as a standalone event as well.
