What is offered

The program includes weekly collective studio visits conducted by our resident and visiting faculty artists and staff.
In the past decade, more than 95% of participants have received full scholarships.

The program includes other prompts and experiments, for example: workshops, conversations, reading groups, seminars and lectures that combine theory and practice, discourse and production.
When you are accepted, you receive several forms and a handbook with detailed information about the School, learning program, and community life.

However, we recommend our applicants to have some years of experience within their own practice to fully benefit from the exchange that the program provides.
The program includes one scheduled Visitor Weekend during the first week of July, during which participants may leave campus for up to three days (Friday through Sunday).
