MassArt Pre-College Summer Studios

Unlock the magic of art with MassArt's Pre-College Summer Studios program. This opportunity is a dream come true for budding artists in grades 11-12, who are truly passionate about their craft. This four-week intensive program not only focuses on art creation but also fosters critical thinking. It instills the discipline young artists require to excel in their artistic journey and generate portfolio-worthy work. Students get the chance to attend three core courses: 2D Fundamentals, 3D Fundamentals, and Issues & Images. These courses aim to fortify foundational skills that are essential for those considering a future in visual arts. Additionally, an elective course intensively meets for the remainder of the program from the third week onwards. The program doesn't stop at just teaching; it creates a unique off-campus experience that aids in developing personal artistic practice, time management, and creative problem-solving skills. This rigorous art school model requires mandatory attendance in each studio where students participate in both individual and group critiques. This program is perfect for students who yearn to develop a portfolio, connect with other creative artists, immerse themselves in their creative passion, and hone technical skills and critical thinking. The cherry on top? The Pre-College Summer Studios offers the option of earning program credits. Students can apply by submitting a portfolio and upon acceptance and successful completion, receive three college credits from MassArt. These can be used towards MassArt studio elective credits in the future or potentially accepted at the student's high school. Embark on this artistic journey and let your creative spirit soar with the MassArt's Pre-College Summer Studios program.
