In the organizer's words:

In recent years, the medium of comics has increasingly been used to address National Socialism in Germany. On the occasion of the traveling exhibition "trotzdem da! Children from Forbidden Relationships between Germans and Prisoners of War or Forced Laborers", the three-day workshop offers the opportunity to approach this topic through information, discussion and drawing. Together, the participants will explore the life stories of children from forbidden relationships and create image sequences with the support of comic artist Elke Renate Steiner. The potentials, limitations and challenges of conveying history through the medium of comics will be reflected upon and discussed.

No previous knowledge is required.
Translation into English is available if required.
The workshop is recognized as educational leave in Berlin.
Maximum of 12 participants.
