Blackcat’s School of Interactive Arts began as a series of conversations between a programmer, an artist, and a dreamer.

Those conversations circled a single idea:
Giving young creators the tools to bring their ideas to life.

We knew there were hundreds of great programs out there, but most either didn’t focus on game development or were university-level programs unavailable to teens.
The current landscape overlooks our most imaginative and ambitious creators.

“We set out to create a space where creativity comes first, and code is simply a tool. A space where teens can turn their ideas into interactive art.”

We imagined a school where storytelling, design, and development all lived under one roof. Where students could build games and ideas that mattered to them, participate in game jams, and contribute to a vibrant community of creators.

That idea became Blackcat's School of Interactive Arts.

We’re just getting started but our vision is clear:
A place where teens learn how to build games and the confidence to shape the future.
