Cal State CREATE is a CSU-wide student creative event and competition, in collaboration with Adobe and Apple. This year's theme is You Belong Here, and students are encouraged to consider what it means to belong throughout the event

Visit the Cal State CREATE landing page for the full agenda.

The virtual event will kickoff on April 5th at noon with feature keynote speakers and workshops focused on digital storytelling and skill-building. The closing ceremony on April 19th at noon will highlight the winning submissions and feature the diverse ways belonging is depicted by the student participants. It will also feature industry experts discussing creative career pathways and trends. 

In between the kickoff and closing, the competition, similar to an Adobe Creative Jam, invites individual students and teams to explore creative tools and create a unique, personal artifact to submit to the competition for prizes. All submissions will be due on Wednesday, April 12th. Winners will receive a brand new set of Airpods and Adobe-branded swag and goodies.

Join us to celebrate belonging, develop digital skills, and consider creative career paths with our featured CSU alums, leaders, and industry partners.
