Comics Youth was founded in 2015 and is a creative community organisation led by young people, for young people. Our aim is to empower youth across the Liverpool City Region to flourish from the margins of society: Harnessing their own narratives, finding confidence within an inclusive community, and developing the resilience to succeed on their own path.
Saturday Comic Workshop
Recruiting new Junior Members on the Wirral - Free Children's Workshops
Do you know someone aged 8 to13 years old who loves all things comics/graphic novels and wants to be creative? Or who loves to read anime and manga? Who wants access to a space to be themselves and nerd out?
Every Saturday morning we host sessions led by industry professionals and super skilled artists, to teach the group how to make the coolest comics, learn art styles, how to make a storyboard, create stories together and become the coolest kids around.
Led by weekly prompts and themes, each sessions ends with something magic having been made and friendships being formed.
This is the perfect space for introverts and shy kids who want to talk about all their special interests, or the louder members of the bunch can discuss what their favourite comics are and why they’re the best.
Who is this aimed at?
Children aged 8 to13
We are person-led in all of our spaces, so if you have any barriers to access or require some specific support to enable you to engage with us - please email us
