Episode 37, Kellen Paul/Community Art Center

You may not have heard of the comic book "Kellen the Kid." Yet. But odds are pretty good that someday you will. It's one of several comic books and strips created by Kellen Paul, a 9-year-old cartoonist and illustrator who's been plying his trade at the Community Art Center in his hometown of Cambridge, Mass., and whose work has taken the center by storm. Kellen — accompanied by the center's director of programs, Sarah Winter, and Jada Alleyne, the center's school-age program manager — joins Dave and Pete on Strip Search: The Comic Strip Podcast to talk about cartooning and what the center is doing to help hundreds of kids get in touch with their creativity every year. (And also to give Dave and Pete a few cartooning tips.) Also, in the intro: A discussion of #Schulz100, the 100th birthday tribute to "Peanuts" creator Charles M. Schulz.
