Once Upon a Doodle with Lindsay Barrett George
Wednesday, July 2
11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Calling all doodlers big and small! Once Upon a Doodle is a free interactive visual storytelling workshop designed for families, teachers, librarians, and anyone who loves to draw and dive into a good story.
Participants will work together along with children’s book author and illustrator Lindsay Barrett George to draw the setting, introduce characters, and improvise an exciting “inciting incident.” From there, everyone gets to imagine and illustrate their own unique ending to the shared tale.
Perfect for all ages and skill levels, this workshop is a fun and imaginative way to explore storytelling through art!
This class is free, but pre-registration is required.
