Summer is a great time to study art in a relaxed, but brisk paced environment. Classes are sometimes smaller than during fall or spring terms and students receive a high level of individual attention to their creative work. Studio classes meet for 4 clock hours per day, Monday through Thursday, assuring students that they will accomplish as much, or more, than in a typical academic term. Summer is also a great time to “catch up” on courses you were not able to register for during the traditional academic year.
