Workshops at the MOPOP
We are thrilled to be partnering with a Seattle landmark, the unmatched Museum of Popular Culture, on TWO of our best-selling workshops! Each session, scheduled for winter and spring breaks, takes place at the MOPOP from 9:00 am to 4:00 p.m.
The two workshops available include:
- Feb. 17-21, 2025: Exploring Robotics and Engineering for ages 6-8. In this workshop, students will build and program their own robots! They’ll learn about all the fundamentals of engineering projects, from designing, to building, to testing.
- Apr. 14-18, 2025: Limitless Minecraft Modding for ages 9-13. This workshop gives students a hands-on introduction to Minecraft modding, including applying new image assets to the game and adding or editing in-game behaviors. Instructors will guide students on the use of an easy-to-understand mod interface so the fun can continue on their home PCs.
Figure-Drawing Workshops for Innovators
Looking for the ultimate time-tested instruction in art? Enroll your Innovator (age 14-18) in a figure-drawing course, one of the fastest ways to practice and refine drawing ability. For students seeking a future in the arts, this is also a great way to begin building a portfolio of their work.
Each class takes place on Tuesdays, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, from Jan. 28 – Feb. 25. (No session will be held on Feb. 11.) We’ll be hosting another session in the spring from Mar. 18 – Apr. 8. Please come to the main DigiPen Redmond campus for drop-off at our front entrance.
Sign up for classes either individually or as a four-class package.
3D Printing Autumn Workshops
Design unique creations in a one-day workshop, appropriate for students of all ages. During any four-hour course, you’ll learn how to design 3D objects and operate a high-quality 3D printer!
Students ages 13 or younger must be accompanied by an adult, but all parents/guardians are welcome to attend! Registration is $50 per student, with accompanying adults attending for free.
Here are our upcoming 3D printing workshops:
- November 16, 2024: Thanksgiving activity
