Drawing Together News! | Graphic Medicine

Announcing our next gathering!

At a time when our lives are beset with anxiety, loneliness, or grief, it is important to try to find events and happenings to celebrate. Birthdays, anniversaries, the changing of the seasons, cherished memories, little milestones, little successes, recoveries. Nuggets of good news can help sustain us through these grim times.

To sign up for the event, email MK via her website, www.comicnurse.com

About Drawing Together:

To respond to the cancellation of our 2020 Graphic Medicine conference in Toronto, to combat the social isolation of pandemic-related lockdowns, and to support and promote community, the Graphic Medicine International Cooperative (GMIC) launched a free weekly virtual meet-up called “Drawing Together” on April 6.

We provided a Zoom link, a topic, and a group facilitator. Members of the world-wide Graphic Medicine community gathered to draw, support one another, and share. See links below to the first thirteen weekly sessions that ran until June 28. This page will serve as an ongoing archive of our sessions. Our intention is to create video posts to guide you through exercises from all the sessions.

Starting in February 2021, these gatherings are now be held twice monthly. The first will be the second Friday of the month 3pm ET (8pmGMT) and the second on the last Sunday of the month, at 1pmET (6pm GMT).
