Tools Day

Discover the creative toolkit behind comic making at this hands-on drop-in event for the whole family. You'll get to try your hand with the same materials professional cartoonists rely on—think ink nibs, brushes, special blue pencils, French curves, rulers, and light tables. Whether you're picking up cartooning tools for the first time or reconnecting with techniques you've used before, there's something here to spark your creativity. This is a casual, no-pressure way to explore how artists transform their ideas into finished comics. You can stop by anytime during the program and experiment at your own pace, making it perfect for families with varying interest levels or schedules. Come ready to get hands-on and see firsthand what goes into the cartooning process.
