Cartoonist Ira Marcks visited several THS art classes earlier this month.

Earlier this month, THS art students had a special guest for a few days to help them learn about creating comics. Award-winning cartoonist Ira Marcks visit Ms. DiDonna’s, Ms. Duchnycz’s and Ms. Lane’s drawing and painting classes from 11/13-19 to share his experience and tips with our young artists.

Check out some of the samples of our students’ work below on Facebook.
