SUMMER 2008
Intensive Art Program for High Schoolers
July 14 – 25
TCU Art Academy is a summer art program designed for any high school student— from the student who wants to build a portfolio to the one who just simply enjoys the creative process. You too can experience art in a studio setting.
The Academy meets daily from noon to 4pm for 2 weeks. Academy students concentrate on their choice of major: painting, 2-D design, 3-D design or drawing. For a meaningful and in-depth studio experience, workshops last 2-3 hours daily. Students will get one-on-one writing assistance in preparation for the “artist’s statements” that will accompany work in the final exhibit.
APPLYING
Applying to the Summer Art Academy is by portfolio. This year we're requesting artwork in digital format.
