Storyteller's Island
Comic Art and Animation


18-22 August
This week on Storytellers’ Island, children will create their own adventures through hand-drawn comic panels, playful cartoons, dramatic photography, and eye-catching VFX.
They’ll learn techniques from graphic novels, animation, and games — designing bold characters, staging scenes, and blending illustration with digital magic.
By the end, each young creator will have a unique portfolio of comics, photos, and VFX art — a true treasure from their storytelling journey

Q&A with Games Art Director from Guildford, UK
We’re excited to announce our unique Q&A session about robots creation pipeline in video games, concept design and modern art tools.
Campers don’t just learn — they live the art through hands-on experiences, trying everything from paint to sand. They take part in creative challenges and team-driven projects that inspire imagination and collaboration+ develop empathy and
emotional intellegence.

  • Immersion
    From building massive creations in our very own Sand Sculpture World Championship to crafting a full animated story together, students engage in collaborative projects that spark imagination and build real creative skills.
  • Collaboration
    We know that innovation only possible if there is a collaboration! Each session blends fun, focus, and artistic freedom—making every child feel like part of a creative community where their ideas take shape and come to life.
  • Masters, Locations & Projects
    We host inspiring creative workshops, collaborate with local artists, and introduce unique experiences like glow-in-the-dark painting and blind sculpting — all designed to spark imagination and broaden young minds. Each child will create a personal project with professional guidance, choosing from a variety of artistic genres such as Photography, Digital Art, Ceramics, and more.
As children explore the world, they begin to discover who they are — building confidence, developing their taste,
and growing new skills.
Art plays a key role in this journey:
studies show that creative activities help develop important brain connections that support problem-solving, focus, and emotional well-being. That’s why we offer gentle guidance and a safe space where every young artist can grow with joy and confidence.
