| Bay Area Comics: Drawing from Life | Thursday, August 31 | 7 PM
In Person: $15 | Livestream: Free | | |
| | | Despite the well-documented contributions of the Bay Area to art history, that story often overlooks comic books. However, the region’s comics artists have actively driven dramatic shifts in the art form. Today, the local comics scene is diverse and vibrant, offering much more than just superhero stories. Join us for a crash course in comics history with cartoonist Justin Hall and for live, illustrated storytelling from innovative Bay Area artists Rina Ayuyang, Fred Noland and Julia Wertz. Eager to dive into their next great read? KQED will host a mini zine and comics fest after the event. | | |
