April 27, 2016 · 0 Comments
Calling all superhero fans, anime addicts, sci-fi lovers and comic book enthusiasts.
Caledon Public Library is hosting its first ever Comic Expo May 7 at the Albion Bolton Branch from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. It will feature a variety of interactive activities for all ages. Participants can visit Oleander’s Wand Shop and make their very own Harry Potter inspired wand, make their own comic book or design their own superhero mask and cape.
Professional cartoonist Mike Cope will be offering three different workshops: Intro to Cartooning; Dip Pen and Ink; and Funny Animals (a.k.a anthropomorphic) and learn to draw cartoon animals that walk and dress like humans.
Registration is required for these three special workshops.
Throughout the day, there will be a variety of drop-in programs, including Minecraft and video games; a scavenger hunt; a superhero Storytime and the Jedi Training Academy.
This fun-filled, all-day celebration of comics and comic culture is a free family-friendly event for all ages and as an added bonus the first 100 people will receive a brand new comic book. Also don’t forget to come dressed up as your favourite movie, TV or comic book character. The costume contest starts at 12:30, with awards for best children’s, teen’s and adult’s costume.
For more details visit the library website or pick-up the Comic Expo @ CPL brochure at any branch.
