Teaching and Guest Speaking

Email me at coyoteshook@utexas.edu for guest lectures. For the time being, all guest lectures and classes will take place via Zoom. 

I have experience teaching comic-making to children ages PreK-12, college, and adult audiences in K-12 schools, universities, Jewish community centers, and museums. I've also guest lectured on comics and disability studies and art and environmental studies. 

Lecture costs operate on a sliding scale, with the most flexibility offered to public educators and nonprofits. 

Prints for Sale:

Art should be accessible for everyone. Prints and card decks are available on a sliding scale if cost is prohibitive.

To buy a print, Venmo me @CoyoteShook and include the title of the print in the description!
