About this Event

Foundation Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator Ages 8+

1:1 mentorship, technical software instruction, and guidance on social and emotional development are the hallmarks of our Foundation Programming, which requires specific hardware and software for participation.

Imagine your child’s own unique interests taking shape through digital painting, illustration, and graphic design. It’s possible when they work one-on-one with a professional design mentor over the course of a five-week workshop. Students will learn new tools as they explore the basics of Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or Procreate while they collaborate and create alongside their mentor. The final workshop culminates with an in-class presentation and celebration of their work. All participants will receive a 18” x 24” printed poster of their creation.
