Thursday, April 7
Loews Hotel, Santa Monica, CA

Watch the modern-day super designer take to the skies with Adobe Illustrator! As our special class project, we will create a kite. But not just ANY kite. Each student will fashion their very own superhero design and then print it onto kite fabric. You'll finish the day by sending your dynamic designs into the blue sky over the Santa Monica beach. Of course, the highest-flying hero will win a prize!
 Main Objectives:
Expand your super powers with Adobe

Learn to fly like a professional, caped creative
Invite your friends and colleagues to join the ADIM 8 League of Heroes!
