Summer Cosplay Academy
Dates to come.
Summer Cosplay Academy is a one-week program where students will build costumes and
accessories from start to finish to represent a specific character.
Open to students ages 13 and up, the class will allow students to craft their heart
out!Students will construct armor and accessories from a variety of materials such
as fosshape, Worbla, and fabric. They will also learn to cut, dye, and style their
own wigs!
But what is cosplay if you can’t wear it? Students will also learn to utilize costume
through specific acting and improv techniques. Show off at your next convention!
All classes take place on the West Virginia University Evansdale Campus in the
Creative Arts Center. Led by WVU Faculty and guest artists who are dedicated and skilled in working with
young artisans.
