826LA@Hammer: KAPOW: Not That Kind of Punchline (a comics workshop)

  • This is a past program

Recommended for ages 9–14

You’ve got a pencil, your brain, and a few empty boxes…so you make comics, of course! Students explore jokes, characters, and drawing through one of art’s finest mediums: the comic strip. Workshop leader Ashlyn Anstee makes things, including storyboards at Nickelodeon and picture books for children.

Free collaborative workshops, presented with 826LA, combine writing with creative activities for groups of up to 20 students.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from an anonymous donor.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, The Samuel Goldwyn Foundation, and all Hammer members.

The Hammer’s digital presentation of its public programs is made possible by the Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.

Hammer Kids is made possible through the generosity of the Anthony & Jeanne Pritzker Family Foundation.

Hammer Kids also receives support from friends of the Hammer Museum’s Kids’ Art Museum Project (K.A.M.P.), an annual family fundraiser. Additional funding is provided by The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation.
