Scholar-in-Residence Jewish Cartoon Workshop with Jordan B. "Gorf" Gorfinkel
Sunday, March 3, 2024 • 23 Adar I 5784
10:00 AM - 12:00 PMThe Jewish Cartoon Workshop is the fun and exciting structured program for all B'nai Israel 5th and 6th Grade students and their families—creating their own comics about Jewish stories and then collects them into a comic book to share and enjoy. No drawing skill required, only a sense of humor!
JORDAN B. GORFINKEL (aka “Gorf”) is a cartoonist, musician, producer, director, and proud father (not necessarily in that order). For nearly a decade, Gorf managed a team of writers, artists, and creators on the Batman franchise for DC Comics. Gorf’s creations have resulted in critically acclaimed and commercially successful publications, film, television series, games, merchandise, and more. Gorf founded and operates Avalanche Comics Entertainment (“ACE”), a dynamic storytelling studio. Gorf is the Creator/Writer/Producer of the Amazon #1 Bestseller Passover Haggadah Graphic Novel (with Koren Publications). The beautiful and functional full-length narrative art version of the traditional Passover Seder table guide book engages people of all backgrounds and faiths in the universal stories and rituals of slavery and freedom.
