Chamber's Bixel Exchange and Snap Inc. partner for Snapchat Sticker Pack Design Challenge

On May 29, Bixel Exchange, part of the Chamber's Center for Innovation & Technology, and Snap Inc. invited the top 20 student winners of the 2019 Snapchat Sticker Pack Design Challenge to Snap’s creative offices in Santa Monica. The students, all from L.A. area high schools and community colleges, received one-on-one mentoring from Snap designers to develop their design skills and expose them to creative tech careers. Each student had a different take on what "Best Friends" – this year’s challenge theme – meant to them and they had an opportunity to develop their creative ideas from thoughts, to sketches and into a final digital design. At the end of the workshop, Snap surprised the 20 winners with the opportunity to add their Best Friend Sticker Pack to Snapchat for them to share. All the students received encouragement to follow their creative endeavors, whether pursuing a career in digital, visual and media arts or just continuing to develop their artistic skills.
