This is an in-person Youth Event.

A suspenseful page-turner filled with all the looming dread of an isolated mountain, Frostbite is a chilling graphic novel for teens from creative duo—and married couple—Ian Boothby and Pia Guerra. Between them, they have multiple Eisner and Shuster awards, and have worked separately, and together, on projects ranging from Y: The Last Man to Simpsons Comics. In this masterclass, they’ll discuss how they collaborate with each other and how they bring such intriguing characters and settings to life through story, dialogue, and artwork. 

Grades 8–12. 

Presented thanks to the generous support of the Pitfield Family in memory of Ebie Pitfield.
