About This Activity
Create and publish your own story, exactly as you are! In this class, gender-expansive, non-binary, and trans youth will dive headfirst into the legendary world of queer comics, DIY zines, and visual storytelling. Artists will be introduced to the basics of cartooning, panel layout, and inking while learning how comics and self-published zines have always been used by LGBTQ+ folks to build community. Drawing inspiration from artists like Maia Kobabe, Jen Wang, Riot Grrrl, and contemporary queer creators, you will learn to fold, staple, and print your own mini-magazines. Come share your work with a supportive peer community, amplify your voice, and make art that is 100% your own!
