As school budgets face funding cuts, and other subjects vie for student attention, students often have to sacrifice an interest in art in order to pursue other subjects during the school year.
The Department of Art, Graphic Design and Art History and the College of Arts & Sciences Outreach art partnering to offer a Summer Art Academy. Enrolled students experience high quality art instruction by attending pre-collegiate classes that provide them with an opportunity to experience and apply some of the same concepts and design principles delivered during college lecture and studio art programs. Students experience college-like instruction, and more importantly, discover valuable career options and degree paths possible within the Visual Arts.
Our Orange Passion is Providing Opportunity
Many interested students are unable to attend the Summer Art Academy due to financial constraints, as there are limited program registration waivers available to help defray expenses. We are determined to change this, but we need your help!Together, with your support during Give Orange, we can show area students we believe in their ability to transform their lives and make great art.
Help us show them that art is important, and that a summer art experience can establish a foundation for a future in art.
