Description: Explore and make comics with professional cartoonist Terry LaBan!

Learn the fundamentals of cartoons, what it's like to be a cartoonist, and how to create your own "foldy" minicomics (so called because they can be made by folding a single sheet of 8.5” X 11” paper).

This MontCo Teen Author/Illustrator Workshop is paid for by the Montgomery County Library District.

Instructor: Terry LaBan decided to be a cartoonist at the age of 6. He grew up to draw political cartoons and illustrations, create alternative comics series for Fantagraphics Books and Dark Horse comics, and write for DC Vertigo and Disney Egmont, where he spent 14 years writing Donald Duck comics. From 2001 to 2015, Terry and his wife Patty, created the daily comic strip Edge City, which was syndicated by King Features. His first middle grade graphic novel, Mendel the Mess-Up, was published in late 2024.
