1 . Creating a Graphic Novel
In the past decade we’ve seen the rise of graphic novels that come in all sorts of forms. Now join author and illustrator Lizzy Stewart for our upcoming masterclass, where she’ll take you through how to create both the illustration and text for a graphic novel. You’ll have the chance to find the right form for the story you are trying to tell, and Lizzy will share her insight into the editorial and publishing process of getting a graphic novel printed. 15 minutes will be reserved for a Q&A session at the end of the masterclass, when Lizzy will answer what you’re curious to know.

3 . When you study abroad in France, you can expect to be treated the same as your native classmates, whether in a lecture or a discussion class.
While you can study abroad in France and focus on nearly any subject, it’s the students with a passion for the arts, architecture and history that rush to the country in the largest numbers. And that’s no shock, considering that France has been the center of the arts for centuries.
As students of the arts, you will have to make careful use of your time, given all that France has to offer.
--Visit the Louvre to view the works of French artists such as Monet, Matisse and Renoir;
--Read the works of such French literary geniuses as Baudelaire, Proust and Voltaire;
--Listen to the music of Debussy, or more contemporary (当代的) artists like Air and Daft Punk.
France is also a main destination for architecture students, as you will see architecture in nearly every style:
--The Gothic Chateau de Chambord, built in the 1500s;
--Place Dauphine built in 1607 in Baroque style;
--The post—modern housing development, Marne—la—Vallee.
History students will find that France has been where the action is for quite some time. Over the course of the centuries, it has been the stage for the most important developments in the history of mankind, including the French Revolution, the rise of Napoleon and the rise of the Fifth Republic under President Charles de Gaulle. It was also the site of the D —Day invasion (诺曼底登陆) of world War II.
As a possible study abroad location, France has a lot to offer, because the combination of educational institutions (教育机构), arts and culture, and national history are second to none.
