Project Description
With support from the California Arts Council, Yeah, Art! will expand and deepen two of our most in-demand, tech-forward curricula — Sky’s The Limit and It Was All A Dream — bringing digital illustration, animation, and storytelling into under-resourced Bay Area classrooms.
This project extends our standard 8–12 week programs into longer-term, immersive residencies, allowing students to develop more advanced technical and creative skills. Students in Sky’s The Limit design artwork for large-scale public display, culminating in their work being featured on the Salesforce Tower, while It Was All A Dream empowers students to write, illustrate, and animate their own stories in 3D and augmented reality.
CAC funds will support Teaching Artists, materials, and program expansion — enabling us to hire industry professionals at radically ethical wages and create high-visibility, real-world opportunities that transform students into confident creators.
