Sessions

Mainstage

Childhood as the Blueprint
Saturday, July 13, 9:50 –10:10am

What sort of art did you make as a child? As illustrators, how can we mine our own childhood for inspiration and ideas? In this session, Magdalena Mora will talk about her path to becoming a children’s book illustrator and how childhood and memory informs her practice. Drawn from years of experience working with youth as an after-school arts educator, Magdalena will also talk about how we can thoughtfully learn from young peoples' experiences and imagination.
