Three free graphic medicine workshops.
Comics about physical and mental health.
Hi all!
We’re digging around in the vast SAW Friday Night Comics archives (three years now, over 150 workshops) and are noticing some trends. Lots of music, lots of places, lots of monsters and animals, and lots of graphic medicine.
We’re talking with the good folks at GraphicMedicine.org about some joint projects and events, and in preparation, found a dozen wonderful workshops.
Here are just three for now. Stay tuned for more.
1 Draw Your Sleep with Maureen Burdock
Comics about Sleep
Maureen Burdock walked us through a conversation with our sleep, asking What Does Our Sleep Need? We created a relationship with it, rather than fighting for it. It was marvelous.
Thanks Marueen!

And 3. We loved Drawing Through the Storm with E Joy Mehr, where we confronted, and played with the things worrying us so much. It eased us all so much!
