In this workshop you will hear a bit about Dog Man, create your own Dog Man character, and learn how to draw and write your own comic featuring your new character. Plus, there will be a very special appearance from Dog Man himself!

Of course, you will need snacks to fuel your creativity, so snacks and drinks will also be provided. Materials will also be provided but feel free to bring your own pencil case and drawing tools along with you if you wish!
