Art Collective: Graphics Artist - Part Time Hours (Entry -Level)

People need places.
Somewhere we don’t have to be, but want to be. Where all are welcome.
Our innovative game studio is united by our passion for creating places. We achieve our purpose through developing games because they are the richest, most dynamic medium where we can achieve this.
Even the placemakers need somewhere to be. We strive to build a world-class studio where we embrace and celebrate our differences. We bring passion, excellence, and energy to our work, knowing we achieve far more together than we can alone.
