The program encourages experimentation via access to a full suite of shared production facilities and knowledgeable staff who are available to provide technical support and assistance. Ceramics, Sculpture, Photography, Printmaking, Papermaking and Digital Media production facilities will all be available for this program. Application Deadline: October 13, 2021 Program Dates: January 10 - February 11, 2022 *Financial Aid of 100% is available to cover tuition, and Financial Aid of 50% is available to offset food and accommodation costs.
