Scribes Youth Writing Workshop: Illustration and Story
Advertisement
Grab your pencils! In this workshop for middle school students, unite the power of drawing with the power of words! We will write a brief story, covering all the major points required in plot. Then, we will draw brief pictures to illustrate those scenes in a comic book-style page. This workshop is ideal for students who are interested in exploring both creative writing and visual storytelling.
About the Instructor
Ross Boone was an engineer and product designer who has always had a passion for story and drawing. As a network artist, he travels around the country doing graphic recording, a form of note-taking with words and drawings for clients such as Coca-Cola, Chick-Fil-A, the FDA, Accenture, and Georgia Tech. It’s a blast. In addition to illustrating for a living, Ross also writes stories in his free time.
About the Workshop Series
At the Wren’s Nest, our mission is to cultivate the next generation of writers and readers by championing the power of using your voice to tell your story. This fall, we’re hosting five writing workshops for middle-grade writers (grades 6-8), each led by a professional local writer and focused on a unique topic, from writing basics to journalism to comics.
These in-person workshops are open to middle-grade students in Georgia. Spaces are limited, and admission will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. For each workshop, a $10 registration fee includes workshop attendance, museum admission, a notebook and writing utensil, and light refreshments.
This Scribes Youth Writing Workshop series is sponsored by Publix Super Markets Charities and made possible with support from the Homestead Foundation.
