Join manga artist and writer Keith Sparrow for a fun and creative manga drawing workshop for children. Young artists will learn how to design their own exciting manga characters with step-by-step guidance, using pencil and colour.
Keith is the author of several books about drawing manga and loves inspiring children to tell stories through art. His latest book, Cornwall’s Fantastic 5!, shares the amazing stories of five of Cornwall’s most famous people and achievements.
In this interactive session, children will discover simple techniques for drawing expressive faces, action poses and unique characters, while building confidence in their creativity. Keith has been drawing and collecting comics since childhood and now runs popular manga workshops across Cornwall.
Perfect for young fans of manga and comics—no experience needed, just bring your imagination!
What(areyour)3Words is a Trevow Helston & Writers’ Block community project taking place across Helston in May half term. Utilising the concept of What3Words as a unique location device and turning it into a method of story generation and collection.
