The Character Creation Program is our traditional program, which we’ve been offering to Twin Cities schools for over 28 years.
Our mentors and students work together to create a one-of-a-kind character and costume based on the child’s imagination and values — along the way, we spark imagination and build confidence. With the help and guidance from their creative mentors, kids are able to explore their creativity and build a foundation of creative confidence
