Create Magic With Me This Spring!

Craft the Magic: Experience Design is a one-day workshop just for high school students.

Date April 11, 2026
Location Hiestand Hall at Miami University
Time 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
Cost $150

Memorable experiences don’t happen by accident—they’re designed. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the same techniques professionals use to craft experiences at places like Disney Parks, interactive museums, and innovative retail spaces.

You’ll start by choosing a real-world space to reimagine—maybe a local landmark or somewhere you’ve always wished existed. Then, working solo and in teams, you’ll bring your vision to life by mapping visitor journeys, building mood boards, and using design tools (including AI) to create polished visuals and prototypes.

No design experience necessary. Whether you love storytelling, problem-solving, art, or just making cool stuff, you’ll find your place here. By the end of our day together, you’ll walk away with a portfolio-ready project that shows how you transform ideas into experiences people remember.

Because design isn’t just about making things look good—it’s about making people feel something.
