"Womens Voices Will Be Heard!" is the slogan of RESIST!, a website and print publication of comics and graphics edited by Françoise Mouly, art editor of The New Yorker, and writer Nadja Spiegelman. The first issue of RESIST!, a free 40-page tabloid newspaper, was distributed at Womens Marches around the country in early 2017 and its next issue "Picturing the America We Want to Live In" will be released in early summer.

To conclude our season with Sharon Lockhart at The Artists Institute, Mouly and Spiegelman are hosting a political comic workshop for women and allies of all ages. Participants will learn the basics of crafting strong images with emotional and analytical commentary and are encouraged to submit their work for the next print edition of RESIST! The workshop is free and open to the public with an RSVP.

Françoise Mouly is co-founder, co-editor, and publisher of the comics and graphics magazine Raw (19801991), publisher of Raw Books and Toon Books, and since 1993 is the art editor of The New Yorker. Nadja Spiegelman is author of I'm Supposed to Protect You from All This, a memoir about her familys matriarchs and the fallibility of memory. She has also written three graphic novels for children, Zig and Wikki in Something Ate My Homework, Zig and Wikki in The Cow, and Lost in NYC: A Subway Adventure.
