SketchyGOichie: D.R.A.W.! is a transformative digital art program designed to empower young
people, including those with special needs, by integrating technology as a tool for creativity in the arts. Our workshops, taught by professional illustrators and art educators, provide an inclusive, community-centered environment where children can develop critical skills, build connections, and explore the potential of creative careers in the arts.
Through a structured 10-week curriculum, we focus on nurturing creativity, improving artistic ability,
and introducing students to industry-standard technology such as iPads and professional drawing
software.
These tools, paired with expert instruction, prepare students to succeed in a world where digital skills are increasingly essential. By turning screen time into productive learning experiences, we ensure students gain tangible skills that can translate to future career opportunities.
​
SketchyGOichie DRAW! is a series of digital art workshops for young artists using iPads. We
teach digital rendering skills, promoting technical/ artistic growth while preparing attendees for
leadership in the creative field.
Our goal is to instill confidence through digital art, critical thinking, and problem-solving. We also guide students in making art a lifelong hobby. For those with emotional or neurological needs, we provide individualized support and promote healthy screen time.
Each week covers different aspects of digital drawing with hands-on iPad sessions, collaborative
projects, and guest instructors offering diverse perspectives.
We aim to provide high-quality digital art education to youth from various economic backgrounds,
encouraging inclusivity and personal growth. We strive to equip kids with the essential art and tech skills to positively impact the local community.
