Redbubble Group and Cartoon Network have launched the first Steven Universe fan experience, in conjunction with the release of the series’ upcoming movie.

The month-long program runs on two artist marketplaces, Redbubble.com and TeePublic.com, and gives fans the chance to engage with Steven Universe characters in new ways, including the ability to create and buy designs from other fans. Fans can also get a first look at scenes from the movie as depicted by Redbubble community artists.

Fans can also participate in a one-of-a-kind personal adventure on the Steven Universe microsite. The personal adventure, which launched on August 22, begins with selecting a character and, through a series of prompts, guides visitors on a fan-art-fueled trip through the world of Steven Universe. The adventure features art created by Redbubble artists in partnership with the show and culminates in a uniquely personalized piece derived from the adventurer’s choices.

As part of the celebration, Redbubble, in partnership with its sister company TeePublic, will also give fans the opportunity to purchase a limited-edition special effects t-shirt that will be sold in limited quantities on TeePublic.com in September. Following the limited edition run of the special effects shirt, the new design celebrating the movie launch will be sold exclusively on Redbubble.com and TeePublic.com as an official Cartoon Network design. Also, on September 2, fans will get a chance to see artwork from Redbubble artists inspired by Steven Universe The Movie, unveiled on the Redbubble site.

Steven Universe The Movie premieres Monday, September 2, at 6 p.m. on Cartoon Network. In his first television movie, Steven thinks his time defending the Earth is over, but when a new threat comes to Beach City, Steven faces his biggest challenge yet.

Steven Universe The Movie comes from the Peabody- and GLAAD Media Award-winning team behind Cartoon Network’s hit series Steven Universe. The Emmy-nominated series is created by Emmy- and Annie-nominated writer and New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Sugar and produced by Cartoon Network Studios.
