Comic Lab Workshops Application

Join our unique hands-on workshops where participants take online and/or in-person classes to learn how to design characters, create stories, and build confidence through the art of comic books. These are guided, individually-paced classes, meaning, we will teach participants any tools they want to learn. Our goal is to support participants in achieving their goals, dreams, and vision. All workshops are fully accessible. We want to make sure all participants have the best possible experience, so please take a few minutes to complete the form below.

Mindset & Openness

At Cooley Comics, we use both traditional and digital tools, to help artists bring their ideas to life. Sometimes we use AI to generate visual references or layouts that artists can then draw or paint over.

Very open — I love exploring new tools

Open, but I’d like to learn more first

Would you like to explore professional opportunities through Cooley Comics (creating for clients, paid projects, collaborations, etc.)? *

Yes, I want to grow my career in this field

Maybe, I’d like to learn more first

No, I’m just here to explore creatively
