Writing and Illustration Workshop | Ages 9-12

Do you want to create a funny and exciting story?

Short, creative course for 9-12 year old kids who want to write stories and / or draw.
During the course, the kids learn how to create fun characters and how to write or draw a story that is both funny and exciting.

Eva Rún and Blær are the authors of the books about Santa Claus Stúfur; Stúfur stops being Santa Claus and Stúfur solves a mystery. Now they are working on a new book about Stúfur and the participants will get a glimpse into the creative process and get a change to take part in it!

The workshop is connected to the exhibition Skissur verða að bók.
