The Student Creative.org


In 2009, we set out to respond to Sir Ken Robinson's TED talk on how many schools are not killing creativity. As we launch our fourth global digital arts collaboration, MyThology, we are pleased to share our brand new site. The StudentCreative.org is now live with resources for how schools around the globe can come together to discover and share their creativity around modern interpretations of classical and cultural myths.

On the site you will also find links to our past digital publications, Paint the World with Light, Float!, and SurrealisticMe, for print and the iPad. All proceeds benefit the Jacaranda School for AIDS orphans in Malawi.

Imaging Youth Designs


Once again, local artist and 2005 Cathedral City High School graduate returned to lend a hand and a creative eye to the DATA Di program. Aaron Hansen, whose mural work stretches beyond the Coachella Valley, worked with students on this year's DATA t-shirts by providing inspiration, design feed back, and screen printing techniques. Students gained an insight into developing their brand and hands-on experience in t-shirt production as they prepare for this year's SkillsUSA competition season.
