Author VisitsArif Rafhan
23 May 2025 (Friday)Ages 7–12
Get ready to unleash your storytelling skills—comic-style! In this workshop, students will learn how to craft their very own 3-panel comic strip, using the classic storytelling arc: Introduction, Build-Up, and Punchline. We kick off with a fun and low-pressure Doodle Ice-Breaker! Students receive a playful doodle template filled with quirky shapes and spaces—then let their creativity flow as they fill every space with imaginative designs and patterns.
Following that, guided step by step, students will:
✔️ Discover how to structure a fun, engaging story
✔️ Learn how to combine words and visuals to bring characters to life
✔️ Practice clear, concise storytelling—skills that go beyond comics and can be used in presentations, writing, and more!
✔️ Walk away with a completed comic strip they’ll be proud of!
Perfect for budding storytellers and creative minds, this session turns imagination into action—one panel at a time!
