Creative Talks & Workshops Around Austin
“The logo game was a great place to start.
It got them thinking right away.”
“Plus, having all those tactile materials immediately piqued their interest. The way Chris scaffolded the workshop was very purposeful and naturally led from one activity to the next.”
– Maya Schwehm, Lead Guide, Middle School, Mariposa Montessori
“Squizzle demonstrated a remarkable ability to engage our students…”
“...providing them with the tools to distill high-level branding concepts into innovative 'products for good.' Their expert facilitation perfectly reflected the Headwaters commitment to merging rigorous thought with real-world action, and we look forward to future collaborations with the Squizzle team.”
– Paul Lambert, Lead Guide, Engineer Your World, Headwaters School
“As a parent and educator, I love what Squizzle is offering.”
"Chris knows how to connect with kids of all ages. I watched him captivate an auditorium of 700 middle schoolers and high schoolers with his TEDxYouth talk about creativity.
His new youth entrepreneurship program (Squizzle) is a great way for kids to learn about differentiation and personal branding in a fun, hands-on environment.”
– Carl Hooker, Podcast Host & Author of ZENgaged: An Educator's Guide to Teaching the Anxious Generation
