ABOUT THE TEACHER  |  DESEURE DEBERRY, after living in Phoenix for about five years, has recently made another attempt at making Spokane home. The diverse background of academia, education, social work, and creation can be summed up into one quintessential theme: social justice. This theme comes up in comics time after time, which is one of her first loves. $40, includes all four sessions. Register online.
