About this event

Join South Australian graphic novelist and author Georgina Chadderton for a hands-on comic adventure at the National Library of Australia Bookshop.

Hear all about their book, Oh Brother – a graphic novel memoir about growing up with their autistic brother, starting high school and navigating new friendships.

Georgina will share behind-the-scenes insights from the real-life inspiration for the book, followed by a draw-along demonstration where you will learn how to create your own characters and illustrate their feelings. Come along to snag fun giveaways and get your books signed and stamped by the author!

Recommended for ages 7 years and over.

Georgina (she/they) is an awkward, yet friendly, cartoonist with an undying love of eating snacks, drinking green tea, patting dogs and playing roller derby. Although Georgina has been published all over the globe, Oh Brother is their first full-length graphic novel. When they're not making comics, Georgina co-directs Papercuts Comics Festival, runs comics-making workshops and reads comics by their favourite comics makers (basically, it's all comics, all the time).
