Hidden Superpowers: Superhero Comic Strip Drawing
Tuesday 19 August 2025 at 11:00AM
Sutton Central Library
Event Description
In this fun family drawing workshop, we’ll practice drawing superhero poses and talk about amazing everyday superpowers, then create action-packed comic strips.
Accompanying adults are encouraged to get involved with their children’s drawings and even create their own comics!
This workshop is led by Mark Pembrey of Quickdraw Comics Club. The exercises are inspired by the novel Double Felix by Sally Harris, for which Mark assisted in writing a Make Your Own Comics supplement."
