Mission

The Sequential Artists Workshop (SAW)'s mission is to nurture and educate tomorrow's generation of visual storytellers, to support creative investigation, exploration and excellence in cartooning and comic art, and to promote sequential and comic art literacy in today's culture. Through its school(s), SAW's goal is to provide quality education to students dedicated to challenging themselves and learning interdisciplinary visual storytelling. Where its school(s) are located, SAW aims to educate and promote comics literacy in our local community(s). In addition, we aim to provide work spaces, teaching residencies and distribution/publishing resources for practicing sequential artists. Finally, through its national outreach program dedicated to publishing and promoting curious, intelligent, and visionary works we aim to integrate sequential art and artists into the broader cultural landscape.
