You know it, love it, you can’t get enough of it - and neither can we. Whether it’s Speed Racer or Dragon Ball, Naruto, or My Hero Academia, we are OBSESSED. The only thing better than watching anime the entire week of February break would be drawing our own anime characters and adventures. Grab your pens, and let’s ikō!

We’ll learn traditional techniques using the boldest of colors, creating unique casts of characters with the best hair, and putting them into action in the world and arc of your dreams. Whether you’re new to drawing classes or an experienced artist, there are always skills to learn that will help you tell the story you want told.

Writing dialogue seems like it should be a breeze but when it comes down to it, writing great dialogue is one of the hardest skills to master. It reveals character nuance and mood; it can set the tone for the entire story; and can be pivotal to your reader’s experience.

For four weeks this winter join original rockstar teaching artist, Kate Reuther, to embark on the writer’s journey toward authentic and impactful dialogue. Together, as a group of motivated and curious writers, we’ll draw inspiration from fiction and screenplays, and fine-tune this skill that can make or break your next short story, novel, or screenplay.

‍
Come ready and excited to engage with some of the most influential voices of our past and present! We’ll read and watch Zadie Smith, JD Salinger, Tana French, Oscar Wilde, Quentin Tarantino, and more.

Craft the world of a novel on a single page — yes, you can do it! In the The One-Page Wonder workshop, we’ll look at the shortest stories from around the world, and explore the limitless possibilities of flash fiction. Starting small, we’ll build from the sentence, to the paragraph, and then finally to the page. These stories are all about building mood and mystery, painting clear images, and dropping the reader into a world that is already alive, and ready for exploration. Surprise yourself with writing that packs a punch in your own piece of microfiction.
