Drawing From History: A Comics Workshop

Saturday November 16, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
  • This event has passed.

Photographs are an invaluable historical resource, but a single snapshot in time can only capture so much information, often leaving mysteries to uncover. Such mysteries can be wonderful muses for art and creativity. Join cartoonist and illustrator Kiku Hughes, author of the graphic novel Displacement, for a historical fiction comics workshop, where participants will use photos from the MOHAI archives to imagine the sequence of events surrounding one moment in Seattle’s history.

Art making materials will be provided! For accessibility support, email programs@mohai.org two weeks prior to the date of the event.
