🎨 Draw It First📅 January 29
⏰ 6:30 – 8:30 PM
📍 Jesus City Mission
👧🧒 Ages 10 and up
🎟️ FREE (bring your own computer)
Got a game idea? An app idea? A “what if…” idea?
Before you code it, draw it.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll use simple sketches to think through your project—no art skills needed.
Whether you're building a game or an app, every project starts with drawing. Not because you need to be a good artist, but because drawing is how you think through problems.
🎮 Game designers will sketch characters, enemies, and worlds, make quick thumbnails, and learn why silhouettes matter.
📱 App designers will sketch screens and user flows, figuring out what happens when someone taps, swipes, or gets stuck.
By the end, you’ll walk away with an asset list—everything your project needs so you can actually build it later.
🌟 What students will do:
-Use simple drawings to plan games or apps
-Learn how designers think through problems visually
-Turn ideas into clear, buildable plans
-Practice creative thinking without pressure or perfection
Stick figures welcome.
Perfect drawings not required.
This is about making ideas visible so they’re ready to become real.
✏️ Draw it first.
💻 Build it next.
This workshop is part of an exciting Spring tech workshop series leading up to 🎉 DemoCamp Jr 🎉, a student showcase where participants will demo their own projects for family and the community. Proudly sponsored by RMC (Recruitment Management Consultants).
