This group is for students with an interest in furry cosplay, fursuit making, and anthro art to talk costuming tips, discuss their fursonas, and socialize with peers in a safe, moderated environment. 

Young learners can express themselves and gain confidence through their connections to real-world and fantasy animals. Who wouldn’t want the loyalty of a dog, the cleverness of a cat, the strong community bonds of a wolf, or the mystical power of a dragon? Don’t just dream your character: being them to life through art and cosplay!

Learners can expect weekly posts encouraging them to show off their fursona reference sheets, "draw it in your style" challenges, to keep each other updated on cosplay builds, and to swap tips and tricks they’ve picked up along the way. Post step-by-step pictures of your costume progress! Help your fellow furries pick out a maker for a commission or encourage them to take the leap and create their own suits. 

Looking to connect with other young furries in your community? Group members can share their experiences with regional furry groups, gatherings and conventions [please note that most furry groups, meet-ups, and conventions are in major metro areas and thus students will not have to share their specific geographical location!]. Share original patterns and recommend professional patterns. Do you have a favorite fursuit maker (like Skyehigh Studios or Neffertity)? Tell us which videos have helped you with your fursuit build!

Group moderation will be light, respectful, and focused on keeping content age appropriate. This is your group; you direct the flow of conversation. I’m here to answer questions and provide gentle guidance on your journey.
