WORKSHOPS FOR LIBRARIES AND SCHOOLS

 

 

Cartoons, comics and caricatures

Learn how to draw your own comic characters, cartoons and caricatures. The workshops appeal to all ages and abilities (8-16 year-olds probably more suited) and offer the opportunity to turn ideas into finished artwork. Invent your own superhero, design your own comic or learn to draw caricatures of your nearest and dearest. Strangely drawn? They will be!

Cost: $120/hour ($180 for just one hour).

Workshop length: normally two hours.

Comedy: Escape from the Planet Zock.

A two hour workshop for teenagers and younger using sock puppets to create a two minute stand-up routine. "You are from the planet Zock and have just landed here on Earth. You have two minutes to convince us you can stay. If you are successful some things called 'parents' will collect you later. How odd you look with that... 'thing' growing out of your arm."

That 'thing' is part of you. During the workshop you will make the puppet (socks supplied, mums, dads and others welcome to stay and help), learn and perform your pitch. Together you could rule the world!

Price: $300 for a two hour workshop.
