The health and wellbeing of our young people and facilitators are our top priority, so we will be suspending our Tuesday and Wednesday Comic Clubs until further notice. This is following current University of Dundee policy on coronavirus, based on advice from the Scottish Government and the NHS.
However, that doesn’t mean the fun stops! We will be posting our weekly comics activities and workshop materials online. Stayed tuned for Digital Comics Club!

This July we are running a FREE two-week Comics Summer School for 8-14 year olds! This Summer Special is aimed at young people who have NOT yet had a chance to attend the regular DCCS Comics Clubs.

The summer special runs each week from Monday to Thursday 10am-12pm from 15th – 25th July.
All materials are provided.
