12:00-1:30 - “'This is a Photo Zine. Please bring photos and images, in any medium you prefer, to piece together your photo story in zine form. (Magazines will be on hand for those who forget their photos.) If you feel so inclined you can even bring some kind of instant film camera to take snaps during the workshop to also include in your zine."

2:30-4:00  - “'Grids and Gestures: A Diary Comic. Draw a comic, even if you have no prior drawing experience! The 'grids and gestures' technique, created by cartoonist Nick Sousanis, instructs participants to rely on drawing shapes and straight or scribbled lines in various ways to tell a story. You’ll use this technique to create a comic that tells stories about the maker’s week and the events within that time frame—a sort of diary comic. This technique is a great way to break through a creative rut or get over your fear of drawing!"

4:30–6:00 pm - "Going Home. This workshop is intended to explore through writing a personal notion of home as both a physical place and a feeling or state; and how a home can be altered, whether through the passage of time (as in, "You can't go home again"), neighborhood change, or the physical loss of a home.
