Does making your own comic strip sound scary!? It’s not! Join artist meika johnson in being facilitated to create characters, a story line, and your own comic strip all through art jam group participation. Based on the teachings of Lynda Barry, we will move thru the steps of comix making together with paper, pencils, and timers! No art experience encouraged! All levels of artists welcome! No one turned away from fear of their own creative self! We are all artists and making art together is community care. You will leave having connected with your inner child, and holding a fun piece of art.

meika johnson (they/them) is an Indigiqueer, self taught mixed media artist who has been creating since they could hold a pencil. They strive to bring queer joy, nature connection, self-love, and community care into their art practice and daily ways of being. meika has been running art programs for youth since they moved to K’omoks Territory 6 years ago.
