Snap has announced that it will be hosting a special Lens studio workshop in India on March 8, International Women’s Day. The company says that the workshop has been inspired by the global IWD theme of ‘Choose To Challenge’. In order to reach out to more women and make the workshop accessible, Snap has partnered with Lean In India, Navjyoti India Foundation and Digital Empowerment Foundation. The workshop’s main aim is to introduce Indian women to Augmented Reality (AR) and its skills.

The Lensathon workshop will be livestreamed on the Lens Studio YouTube channel from 7 PM to 8 PM. The participants of the workshop will be given two weeks of time to create and submit their AR experience designs using Lens Studio, Snap’s free desktop app. The winners of the contest will also stand a chance to win prizes from a prize pool of Rs 3 lakh, goodies and get featured in the app’s Lens explorer.

The designs will be based on ‘From Dreams to Success”, the words of Kalpana Chawla, the Indian-born NASA astronaut and aerospace engineer who died in 2003 in a Space Shuttle disaster.
