My Project

Our students are passionate learners and we want them to introduce them to the world of sublimation printing and digital design. They will enhance their artistic and creative skills through hands-on projects, and foster collaboration and teamwork through shared creative endeavors. They will also integrate technology into the arts and promote cross-disciplinary learning. With a heat press machine, students will be passionate about their work and able to display their learning on shirts, hats, and tumblers in a fun project-based learning format. They can also develop their business and marketing skills in a safe space.
