Make Your Own Comic with Author Kay Healy

Kay Healy, author and illustrator of the graphic novel Casey’s Cases: The Mysterious New Girl, joins us for a comic activity, short reading, and the release of the second book in the series, Casey’s Cases: Everything is Terrible.

Hailed as “Riotous” in a starred review from School Library Journal, “comedy gold” by Kirkus Reviews, and an “inviting series starter” in a starred review from Publishers Weekly, readers of all ages delight in the hilariously mundane mysteries of eleven-year-old detective Casey.

We hope you’ll join us to meet the author… and find your new favorite graphic novel series!

Healy received a BA from Oberlin College and a MFA from the University of the Arts. Her installation Coming Home was purchased by the Pennsylvania Convention Center, and her work has been supported by the Independence Foundation’s Fellowship in the Arts and the Leeway Foundation.
Healy has had solo exhibitions at Gallery Madison Park in New York City, Gallery Septima in Tokyo, Japan, the Windgate Gallery in Fort Smith, Arkansas, the Delaware Center for Contemporary Arts, the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts, and other galleries. She has completed residencies at KKV Print Studios in Malmö, Sweden, The Cooper Union in New York City, and Moosey Gallery in Norwich, UK.
