Comics Parties

BIRTHDAYS… ANNIVERSARIES… MEETINGS…
Let’s draw together!

Making comics is a great way to mark your special occasion — a 10th (or 100th) birthday, an anniversary, or just for the fun of it! Marek will guide your group in creating original comics on any topic, & produce a souvenir mini-comic of your group’s artwork…

Here’s how a COMICS WORKSHOP party works:


BEFORE: Gather Your Crew!

INVITATIONS: Print & color some of Marek’s fun artwork to announce your event, or work with Marek to design your own invitations!

PLATFORM: Pick a video streaming account from Marek’s Remote Video Class page.

TEST RUN: We also suggest a test video session (5-15 minutes) a week before the event, to touch base & test our tech connections!

ORDER BOOKS for participants
(contact Marek for special event pricing).


PARTY TIME: Let’s Create Comics!

TIME: 30-60 minutes
GROUP: 1-20 participants
MATERIALS: paper (letter or A6 size) + Pencil and/or black pen

ACTIVITIES: During your event, Marek will guide the group via remote video as we:

  • Generate new ideas for stories.
  • Create original comics pages!
  • Swap feedback & ideas!
  • Ink & reveal our finished artwork!

FOCUS: What would you like to draw?

  • 8-page Stories: Each artist starts a 1-sheet mini-comic! [SAMPLE]
  • Let’s Draw MONSTERS! Create your own original monstrosities (any level)! [SAMPLES]
  • Poetry Comics: Drawing new pages from a specific poem or song lyric! [SAMPLE]
  • Host’s Choice: Design your own special focus for the workshop!


AFTER: Souvenir Mini-Comics!

After your event, Marek can assemble the new artwork into an online gallery and/or a mini-comics booklet for all participants to print & read & enjoy! The format & size is up to you (& the other artists)…

SHARE: Taking Photos of Your Artwork

This page gives some guidelines for taking useful, clear photos of the artwork created during your party! Share with guests…
