LDC PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS ARE BACK!

Why not book up for an LDC TOOL KIT of 7 workshops https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ldc-professional-development-workshops-oct1219-26-nov-2-2019-tickets-71691440027

In January 2019 we successfully piloted 6 professional development workshops on Saturdays throughout the month. We are running these again on Saturdays 12,19, 26 October and 2 November, 2019.

These 2 hour workshops will be open to all genders and will be held on Saturdays in October and the 2nd of November. Each workshop will be run by a leading cartoonist/professional who will share their wisdom and experience to help you further your career.

Designed to support Cartoonists, Graphic Novelists and Illustrators  they also offer valuable skill building  for  writers and creatives more widely.

Money raised from these workshops will go towards funding the 2020 LDC Awards.
