2023 YMAD Program: Call for Participants! 

The Outreach + Development Team at GM Design is kicking off the 2023 call for You Make a Difference (YMAD) students. The goal of YMAD’s 7-week, virtual program is to introduce young creatives to career paths within Automotive Design and Sculpting as well as enhance portfolio pieces for established students. Accepted students will work alongside GM Design professionals on their sketching skills, digital tools and the application of Color, Material, and Finish. In addition to the Design skills that will be acquired, students will grow in their ability to communicate and present their work and ideas to leadership, receiving feedback, and problem solving. Each week, students will be exposed to different creative disciplines and career paths that are available for creative students. 
​
The Outreach + Development Team at GM Design is offering students (7th-12th grade) a 7-week all-virtual course in Automotive sketching and Sculpting utilizing the Microsoft Teams platform. The YMAD class will meet once per week on Thursdays from 4-6 p.m. starting on January 5th. We will have a kick-off session on Thursday, December 8th from 4-6 p.m. For more information and details on the application process, please see instructions below.
