Get Lit: Drawn to Life
Join us for a night of creativity, color, and animated magic at Get Lit: Drawn to Life. We’re diving into the vibrant world of animated movies and TV shows, spotlighting the storytellers who bring these beloved characters and worlds to life. This is your chance to geek out over your favorites, learn something new, and connect with fellow animation lovers.
- Flex your cartoon cred in a animated trivia competition, with fun prizes for the top team.
- Unleash your inner animator with hands-on art activities, from flipbook stations to sketching opportunities.
- Enjoy beer, wine, and the night’s specialty cocktail, the Storyboard—an animated twist on a ranch water cocktail! Non-alcoholic options are also available.
Get ready to laugh, color, and cartoon your heart out—because at the American Writers Museum, we’re all about stories that move.
