VSB Sustainability Conference artist training

Do you Doodle in Class? Care about Sustainability? The VSB Sustainability Conference wants you!

Do you doodle in class, during meetings? Can't stop drawing if you tried?  We have once again been requested to do youth artist training for youth to draw for other youth at the VSB Sustainability Conference! on Feb 19, 2018. We need to find at least 20 youth artists to draw for their peers.

The first of two co-design youth artist training sessions will take place on  

JAN 31

FEB 6

FEB 13

at Gladstone Secondary School in the staff room 4-6pm

4105 Gladstone Street

We will also warm up on the morning of the conference so you'll be ready to draw for the planning session!  APPLY TO BE AN ARTIST HERE.

What you will learn:

• Fast visual storytelling techniques that can be used for planning
• Sketching warm ups
• Fundamentals of co-design drawing
• How to draw fearlessly in front of peers

We will take you step by step to draw for the conference!
Ready, set, DRAW!
