The workshop is part of the “iLibrary” Teen Reading Program. Rob Guillory, a comic book artist from Lafayette will lead the workshops.
Each workshop will include an introduction to the comic-making process and a drawing exercise.
Participants will be able to view Guillory’s illustrations up close and observe drawing techniques used in computer graphics programs.
Seating is limited and participants are encouraged to register by phone or in person at West Regional Library or St. Rose Branch. West Regional Library is located at 105 Lakewood Drive in Luling, and St. Rose Branch is located at 90 East Club Drive in St. Rose.
