Comics Club: Pop-up Comics

At the Alligator's Mouth Comics Club we make comics together, each time looking at a different technique or theme and learning to make stories. This month, we'll be creating our own pop-up comic scenes following a look at some of the wonderful pop-up books we have in stock. This event is perfect for comics lovers of 7-11 years old who want to draw their own comics.

Author and illustrator Sam Hearn will be joining us in the shop for a Never Brush a Bear themed event! Sam will be reading from the book as well as leading us in a drawalong.
