Welcome to Wacom Creativity Camp! 

Wacom Creativity Camp is a free online character design workshop series happening this summer, presented by Wacom in partnership with Best Buy. It’s taught by MCAD professor Lafe Smith, and is perfect for young folks, beginning artists, or anyone else who wants to strengthen their character design skills. It's free, and you don’t need any digital art tools to participate – pencil and paper is fine! 

During this workshop series you’ll learn the basics of how to create a character – including finding inspiration, sketching, silhouettes, expressive faces and poses – and will end up with a complete model sheet for your original character! Throughout, you’ll also get expert feedback and support from a professional artist. 

We’re proud to be partnering with Best Buy as our preferred retail partner for Creativity Camp this year! Click here to check out everything Wacom on BestBuy.com.
