Seattle Workshop Classes
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Inneract Project workshops are a chance for young people, parents, college students and practitioners to inneract. Classes are used to educate and inform youth about design as a career option. Workshops are free to insure every kid has an opportunity to take part in IP classes. IP's ideal student is one who has some interest either in art or making things.
IP's stipulation is that the parents attend orientation on the first day and that the students don't miss more than 1 class. This keeps the classes and cirriculum effective for everyone. Below are listings of classes previously held by the Inneract Project.
