“Whenever we have held courses or events on art and design, we have received tons of interest and registration. Along with space exploration and wildlife appreciation, art and animation are at our highest level of enrichment activity, "he said. Brian Galvin, Chief Academic Officer of Varsity Tutors. “Our mission as a company is to connect students with experts anytime, anywhere, so given the huge interest in art and animation, we looked at how to get kids' access to inspirational experts and this led us to collaborate with social media superstars like James Lewis and Audity Draws, and with DreamWorks and its animators to The Boss Baby e Madagascar. We want children to see that there is a promising future in art and to learn from leading artists that art is not an innate skill, but a skill that requires practice and a lot of trial and error.
“Our big goals are 1) to inspire children to pursue their passion for art and animation; 2) provide them with the techniques, insights and collaborative practice to hone their craft; and 3) humanizing the creative process and the idea of artistic careers by allowing them to work with real people who have peaked, but who can admit to making mistakes and having to learn along the way.
