My hubby loves me a little more when I surprise him with fun events like this.
The San Diego Comic Art Gallery, located at NTC/Liberty Station, invited educators, students, and their parents to Friday Night Liberty on Friday, September 4th, 2015 for an Open House and Tribute to Teachers, featuring an appearance and signing by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman.
Yes, hubby was super excited!
Kevin Eastman is one of the world’s most influential and successful independent comic book artists. He lives in San Diego and maintains a working studio within the San Diego Comic Art Gallery. Eastman’s motto reflects his deep passion for kids and creative thinking: “Imagination is the Greatest Adventure.”
We were able to experience a hands-on, behind-the-scenes look at the comics industry. Kevin Eastman's exhibition illustrates how an artist can achieve a dream, how comic books are made, and the remarkable level of thought and creativity that goes into every comic book.
It was awesome meeting Kevin Eastman himself! My kids were in awe! Not to mention hubby was giddy like his own sons!
