Join Joshua and Lydia for this 2.5 hour virtual workshop on January 26th, 2026 at 6pm! We will cover the ins and outs of sharing your story safely and getting your point across effectively as well as visual communication strategies and ideas. You'll have time to create a short comic about a story or message that is important to you, inspired by your own lived experience. We do this for the power of storytelling, to advocate for ourselves and others, or for self-expression and having fun!
