Gioia Fonda is an art instructor and Hayley Laird is a reading and English instructor at City College. There will also be graphic novel activities held at the event.

“Graphic novels are a form of sharing information with others that has been ignored by the academic community for far too long as something ‘sub-par’ or even ‘trashy,’” said Judith Howe, the event’s coordinator. “This couldn’t be farther from the truth. Consider ‘Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic’ by Alison Bechdel. This graphic novel has complex themes of family relationships, homosexuality and suicide. The author’s choice to use the visual medium of graphic novels brings some of the experiences alive in a way that prose alone probably wouldn’t have done.”
