It’s the Summer of Design!  This summer at Do Greater Charlotte, students will be designing concepts for products, games and architectural projects.  From sellable products with Design to Dollars, to game prototypes in Camp Playmaker, and physical architectural models in Project Pipeline; at Sparkhouse West the summer is prime for the creative mind with a bent toward entrepreneurship.

DESIGN TO DOLLARS is a hands-on summer camp where students will bring their creative ideas to life and turn them into sellable products. Throughout the week, students will explore digital design programs, create custom products, and develop entrepreneurial skills to market and sell their work. The program will culminate in a Pop-Up Market, where students will showcase and sell their creations!

This is a paid opportunity, but with financial aid and scholarships available! Please reach out to Design to Dollars Camp with any questions about financial aid.
