Next week, Maine comic book artist Jay Piscopo will present his “Draw on Your Creativity” interactive drawing workshop at select Pennsylvania schools. This summer he toured Pennsylvania libraries as part of “Be Creative @ Your Library” summer reading program and, based on the success of that tour, was invited by area schools to return. Read full story at this link. 
Jay Piscopo's week-long tour of Pennsylvania libraries wrapped up today at Radnor and Malvern Public Libraries. Jay lives in Portland, Maine and is the creator of The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli all ages graphic novel. 
He spent the week in Pennsylvania presenting his interactive Draw on Your Creativity drawing workshop for kids. Today, long time friend Chris White joined him in Radnor. Chris was an artistic inspiration to Jay when they were in school together and they had not seen each other for 25 years. 
Pennsylvania is a diverse, beautiful state with fantastic libraries all with rapidly expanding graphic novel sections. Jay is proud to have Capt'n Eli on the shelves of so many libraries and to have met so many creative and energetic librarians who are constantly finding new ways to engage the creativity and curiosity of kids. Be creative @ your library -- and -- stand by for adventure!
