As part of our Story Explorers events programme, this fun event gets imaginations racing with the author, illustrator of the ‘Maddy Yip’ series, Sue Cheung. Children are encouraged to think of their own comic-strip ideas and get them down on paper, against the clock. Sue also does some on-the-spot doodling, so it’s a challenge for her too!
As part of our Story Explorers events programme, join author, illustrator of the CROAKY series, Matty Long, for a fun and interactive drawing workshop to learn how to draw characters from the books step-by-step. After learning the tips and tricks of creating a hero capable of great adventures, you'll then get to design your own.
