Live Free and Draw

LIVE FREE AND DRAW is looking for NH historical societies to collaborate on local history comics projects…

Check out our list of ACTIVITIES OPTIONS >>

SET UP an event or residency w/ Marek’s COMICS WORKSHOP >>

How YOUR historical society can help:

1. Suggest local stories that would make interesting comics, and will teach new readers about our state’s history.  We’re looking especially for these kinds of stories:
   • beloved by the locals!
   • unknown to the locals!
   • rich in colorful characters & events
   • representative of an upcoming anniversary or milestone
     (Example: Civil War)
   • particularly evocative of an era, topic, or theme
   • particularly appropriate for addressing state educational standards
2. Help us connect your archives & materials with young artists at your local school/library/other org…!
3. Provide a home base for a single- or multi-day cartooning residency, where LiveFreeAndDraw.com visits your museum, library, school, or other site to research stories & draw comics about your community.
   (Example: A visit to a New London library led to the discovery of the Trussel roadside marker…)
4. Ways to share LiveFreeAndDraw.com & our mini-comics with your neighbors — through inclusion in your newsletter, email updates, website, social media, etc.
