Sure, you may have heard about Leonardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso, Annie Leibovitz, Steven Spielberg. But, have you heard about DALL-E 3?
Explore the application of AI to various visual art fields such as drawing, painting, fashion, sculpture, film in this virtual camp for 6th – 12th graders, under the tutelage of MIT & Stanford engineers. Students will be learning how various AI models and concepts – Convolutional Neural Networks, Variational Autoencoders, Generative Adversarial Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, Transformers and Dimensional Reduction – work in the context of the visual art domain.
Students will join the AI art revolution by creating and curating their own AI + Art Galleries. Towards the end of the camp, students will also be participating in the 100K MehtA+ Money Startup Pitch Competition where they will pitch startup ideas related to AI + Visual Arts. Students who successfully complete the camp will receive a certificate.
There are two versions of this course – the self-paced course is offered year-round and involves instructor grading of the pitch. The live course is offered a couple of times during the year during the spring and summer.

MehtA+
When you attend a MehtA+ camp, mentorship does not end only after camp. Our staff offers college and career advice and company referrals well after the bootcamp. Post the bootcamp, you will be invited to be a part of the international MehtA+ alumni network composed of students from our previous bootcamps. Many of our alumni have attended some of the world’s best universities, including MIT, Harvard, Carnegie Mellon and University of Toronto.
MehtA+ alumni are invited for teaching and mentorship opportunities with us. These opportunities give students another chance to engage with the material that they have learned through our bootcamps and create their own curriculum under the guidance of MehtA+ instructors. We also invite our alumni to be MehtA+ teaching assistants and tutors.
Testimonials
“The MehtA+ AI in Visual Arts camp was a fantasitc experience. We learned about many concepts in AI that were new to me. The teachers had great knowledge of the concepts and explained them in a simple manner. Throughout the camp, I learned about many cool tools that I had never used before. I enjoyed the opportunity to collaborate with my peers to make an AI design. I also developed many presentation skills. My teacher was very helpful and answered all of our questions. Overall, the camp was a valuable experience that introduced me to machine learning and its practical applications. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in AI.“
“The AI in Visual Arts camp offered a very fun and comprehensive curriculum. Ms. Haripriya herself was an awesome teacher, great at explaining challenging material and engaging students, and very patient and encouraging.“
