I'm an author/illustrator who presents to elementary school students about writing and illustrating humorous picture books, graphic novels, and chapter books.

I include a mix of info about my writing and illustrating processes as well as exciting, interactive drawing demonstrations for all ages.

We offer pattern drawing and mandala drawing workshops. We learn a little about the background of mandalas, explore patterns and the benefits to drawing patterns; and of course draw patterns and mandalas. During the class everyone will have the opportunity to draw patterns and a mandala, but it is more about the process and less about the finished mandala. Throughout the workshop we will learn (and experience) how drawing patterns and mandalas can reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, improve focus and increase creative thought. We will also work together to create collaborative designs, exploring the impact of everyone contributing their own unique approach toward a common project. Benefits: • The practice of pattern drawing reduces stress and increases focus. • Exploring how to draw complex patterns helps us understand how to break large goals into less overwhelming segments. • Our collaborative activities create a visual demonstration of how we all approach a similar task from different perspectives and how amazing the result is when everyone contributes to a common task or goal. • Becoming more aware of patterns all around us leads us to look at our surroundings with great curiosity and appreciation

What is Opera Saratoga’s Education Program? Each year, Opera Saratoga tours an Opera production to more than fifty public and private schools throughout the greater Capital and lower Adirondack regions of NY. The performances feature charismatic professional artists who love to share their joy of music and theater through the opera, as well as through question and answer sessions where students have the opportunity to meet the artists and learn about the music and what it takes to put on a performance. In a world where the default forms of entertainment for children are primarily television, video games, and the Internet, Opera Saratoga’s In-School Opera program provides youth with an all-too-rare opportunity to experience the visceral thrill of the live performing arts, up close and personal! Opera Saratoga's touring program includes a lesson plan that arrives a month before the performance, a professionally staged opera performance in your school, along with a post-performance discussion between the artists and your students. Schools will also receive an invitation to the dress rehearsal of the performances in Opera Saratoga's summer festival. Contact us now to book your opera performance for March 2025!

Julia Houk is a literacy researcher and former secondary English teacher (PhD candidate, University of California, Davis) who designs multimodal composition workshops built around real research and real texts. Students investigate a topic or work through blended genres: primary-source research, poetry, pastiche, translation, photography, and more. Through working with hybrid forms, students learn to synthesize sources and build various rhetorical stances across genres and media. The approach is grounded in Julia's published research on multimodal transmediation and years of teaching multigenre research projects to secondary students. Sessions are scaffolded for writers from grade 3 through grade 12, adaptable to any classroom text, novel, or research theme a teacher is already using, and can run as a single interactive workshop, a multi-day residency, or a small-group classroom series. Students leave with a finished multimodal piece and a working sense of how research, evidence, and craft fit together. (Julia also holds formal training in Shakespeare studies and can build a Shakespeare-specific version of this unit on request.)
