Japanese comics, called manga, are all the rage among American kids. While children may love to read them, most have no idea how to create them. Art instructor Barbara Golden aims to teach them how. At her Cartoon Workshop for Kids, students ages 8–12 will learn how to draw their own manga, Pokemon, and Neopets characters. The free class will be held on January 11 at 4 p.m. at the Rohnert Park–Cotati Regional Library in Rohnert Park. Register at sonomacounty.libcal.com.
