Mobile Digital Art Workshop for Kids

We all know that kids & teens love using their iPads, but do they know how to use them to do more than watch movies and play games? Fire up your child’s creativity and get them using their iPad to make drawing, paintings, animation, music, movies and ebooks. This hands-on conference will introduce your child to the powerful creative tools they have at their fingertips and make connections to their learning at school – and it’s a lot of fun!  

They will create a number of projects during the session and take away a variety of apps to use. Art is a powerful way to unleash kids’ creative energies that are critical for brain and fine motor development. With iPads, children now have access to powerful tools for creativity that they can take anytime, anywhere. Our goal is to take the iPad from being a tool for consumption and gaming to a “on the go” art studio.

Kids will learn to…

  • Draw digitally
  • Paint digitally
  • Sculpt, animate and more

    Parents will join at the end of the workshop to see the amazing products their children have created.
