Join us for an inspiring graphic design course where you’ll learn the fundamentals of Affinity Designer, Photo, and Publisher. Over 10 lessons of 2 hours each, we\u2019ll explore these modern and professional design tools that offer powerful alternatives to Adobe software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our Affinity Publisher sessions, we\u2019ll dive into layout design for posters, zines, magazines, and digital publications. You\u2019ll learn about setting up documents, mastering grids and guides, working with typography, and integrating images and vector elements into cohesive visual compositions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the Affinity Photo lessons, we\u2019ll explore the world of photo editing and pixel-based design. You\u2019ll practice image retouching, compositing, applying effects, using brushes, and refining textures to bring your visuals to life \u2014 all while getting comfortable with non-destructive editing and layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the Affinity Designer classes, you\u2019ll discover the power of vector graphics. We\u2019ll cover logo creation, icon design, character illustration, and scalable artwork for print and digital formats. You\u2019ll learn to combine vector and pixel elements, experiment with color palettes, and explore composition principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our final class, we\u2019ll connect all three parts of the program \u2014 Designer, Photo, and Publisher \u2014 to create a complete, integrated project showing your new skills in layout, illustration, and image editing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us and unlock your creative potential with Affinity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
