Art enrichment program which the entire family can participate in
and enjoy.

CREATE YOUR OWN CARTOON

1) CREATE ONE SINGLE PANEL WITHOUT A CAPTION. LET THE DRAWING TELL THE JOKE.

2) CREATE ONE SINGLE PANEL WITH A CAPTION BETWEEN TWO CHARACTERS.

THE CHARACTERS CAN BE BASED ON ANYBODY OR ANYTHING: YOURSELF, AN ATHLETE, A MOVIE STAR, EVEN YOUR PET.

3) USE THE PANELS BELOW, OR IF YOU NEED MORE SPACE USE ANOTHER SHEET OF PAPER TO CREATE YOUR OWN CARTOONS.
