Join MODA for a virtual studio in which students will design a large-format fantasy map poster that showcases their own imagined world. 

In this virtual studio, young designers will explore how composition, typography, symbols, and color work together to build a map. Students will sketch landforms and regions, plan a layout, and use Canva to create a polished poster that includes mountains, forests, rivers, kingdoms, portals, or any magical features they imagine. At the end of the studio, students can share their posters and receive feedback in a supportive environment.

In this Afterschool Studio, we’ll:

• Study how visual hierarchy and legends help readers navigate a map

• Learn how color palettes support the mood and character of a world

• Use Canva to design a complete fantasy map poster layout

• Practice worldbuilding through illustration and design choices

• Provide a space to share and provide constructive feedback

• Practice collaboration, inclusivity, creative courage, imaginative problem-solving, storytelling, and critical thinking
