Graphic novelist Mat Heagerty, author of “Lumberjackula” and “Unplugged and Unpopular,” will lead a free comic workshop for kids ages 7 to 13 at the Mansfield Public Library, 5 Main St., Temple, on Friday, July 11, at 11 a.m.
The one-hour session introduces the graphic novel creation process from idea to finished book. Depending on group size, Heagerty will lead either a live drawing and storytelling activity or a collaborative comic-writing session. A question-and-answer period will follow.
Heagerty has written several graphic novels for young readers and presents workshops across the country.
The program is part of the library’s “Level Up at Your Library” summer reading program.
Registration is encouraged. For information, call 603-878-3100.
