Projects in Visual Arts Professions

Because this program is meant to support the individual projects that you are passionate about, we have very limited in-class hours. In spite of this, expect to spend about 40 hours per week on your work for the program. We will gather together as a group on Tuesdays from 1pm-5pm in Seminar 2 E4115 (THIS IS A ROOM CHANGE!!!!!). When we have fieldtrips, those will occur on Tuesdays and may require that we leave earlier than 1pm.

We also have class on Wednesdays from 10am-Noon in Sem2 C2109 and a 2nd location that we will use once we break into seminar groups.
