Where Creativity Meets Career
Class Description
In this class, students will learn how to take their creative passion and turn it into a career through learning the process of children’s book illustration. Under professional guidance, each student will learn to create a professional quality portfolio of children’s book illustrations and to add a fun twist, we have teamed up with a local children’s book author to give students an incredible opportunity to be featured in their upcoming children’s book! If students choose to submit a portfolio at the end of the course and win, not only will that student’s work be featured in a published children’s book, but that student will also receive $500 for the illustrations, as well as a contributor’s copy of the book once it’s printed!
