Making Curriculum Pop

Comics Gallery Now Available through NCTE's National Gallery of Writing!

I herein formally announce the creation of the "SASSY: Sequential Art Stories Submitted by Youths!" virtual gallery. SASSY is one of online galleries associated with NCTE's National Gallery of Writing, but is unique in that it features graphic narratives (comic strips, comic books, and graphic novels) exclusively! Here's the formal description:

Gallery Description: Sequential art narratives -- comic strips, comic books, and graphic novels -- involve advanced writing and composing skills too! This gallery features works of comics art submitted by young people and by those young at heart.

Anyone can submit a work of sequential art to the gallery, but, as curator, I am especially interested in works from students and from classes or programs where comics composing is being taught.

Please spread the word about this gallery. Tell local teachers; share it with your students; encourage talented comics creators in your classrooms to submit. They might just see their work published for the world to admire!

Hi Bucky. Your new gallery sounds great! I'll do what I can to help pass the word along. Btw, I'm working with a freelance writer to get an article ready for the November Council Chronicle, updating folks on some of the neat galleries that have started up in the Gallery of Writing in the past couple months. I suppose your SASSY gallery will take a little while to get going, but keep me posted once there's some activity -- it sounds like the kind of thing people would enjoy hearing about.
Good, that's what I was hoping someone would go ahead and do!
