My son hasn't been old enough to attend these yet but I hear they are pretty cool!

" These free events will give elementary, middle, and high school students the chance to preview our upcoming course offerings. Attendees will also receive a discount of either $100 for a two-week workshop or $35 for a one-week workshop during the 2015 summer!

Each summer, DigiPen offers one-week and two-week workshops that introduce students to a variety of fun and engaging Video Game Programming, Game Design, Fine Arts and Multimedia Production, and Engineering topics. We offer Teen Workshops for students entering grades 8-12, Junior Workshops for students entering grades 4-7, and Young Explorer Workshops for students entering grades 1-3. These programs are offered at DigiPen’s Redmond, WA, campus, located within minutes of Nintendo of America, Microsoft Game Studios, and Valve Software at the heart of the video game industry.

Registration for 2015 Preview Days will be open on January 5, 2015. In order to make room for all interested participants, attending parties and families must be limited to no more than four guests each. There will be a separate schedule for students and parents. Please register each participating student separately (even if there is more than one student in the same party), and feel free to contact us at projectfun@digipen.edu for further information.
