Character Core Conference 2027

Olivia Grace & Company is creating an immersive, three-day training experience designed specifically for those who are passionate about the art of professional character performing.

​

The Character Core Conference will bring together a small, carefully selected group for a weekend of hands-on education, professional development, connection, and, of course, a little magic.

​

Applications will be open to:

• Students interested in pursuing character performing

• Current performers affiliated with character entertainment companies

• Experienced performers looking to strengthen their skills

• Individuals hoping to advance their careers within the character entertainment industry.

​

Throughout the weekend, attendees will build their own curriculum by selecting from four tiers of sessions; with topics ranging from character interaction, storylining, posing, autographs, costuming, voice and character development to hands-on transformation, professional character makeup, auditioning, and more.

​

The weekend will also include an OG&C-sponsored Welcome Mixer, Princess Pajama Party, professional networking opportunities, optional experiences and add-ons, and our closing Commencement Breakfast and ceremony.

Space will be intentionally limited. This will not be an open-registration event. Prospective attendees must apply to be considered, and invitations to register will be extended to a small group of applicants who we believe will benefit most from the experience and contribute positively to the Character Core community.

​

Anticipated tuition for the full three-day experience is approximately $650 per attendee.

​

Travel and hotel accommodations are not included. However, we will provide attendees with access to a discounted partner hotel room block to make planning their stay as simple as possible.
