Cartooning Class

Mr. Patrick's Intro to Cartooning and Comic Book Classes are offered during the fall, winter, spring, and summer. Each class is one hour long, held once a week for 9 weeks (or sometimes 8, depending on holidays). Participants are guided step-by-step through the fundamentals of traditional cartooning. With each lesson, they build the skills to create their own comic book narrative—bringing to life a story from their imagination, complete with characters and backgrounds in full color. At the end of the course, they’ll have a beautiful, finished comic book to share with family and friends as a cherished memory.

Cartooning Summer Camp

Mr. Patrick's Cartooning and Comic Book Summer Camp runs from May through August, Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 12 PM. Participants will learn the same foundational cartooning skills as in the class, with an added focus on creating their own comic book narrative. They’ll bring their imagination to life with colorful, animated characters and backgrounds to share with family and friends. But it's not all work—camps are meant to be fun! Instructors create a lively, light-hearted, and friendly atmosphere to keep participants engaged, making sure camp becomes a memorable summer experience. Plus, participants enjoy two 15-minute breaks to snack, make friends, and take part in fun games.
