Course Descriptions

This course, offered on a rotating basis with other arts practice courses, fosters students’ aesthetic and skill development of a visual or craft object through arts instruction, intensive artwork, class sessions, and individual and/or small-group meetings (with faculty or mentors), as well as readings on the history and practice of visual arts. Students explore uses of image, symbol, or theme in their work or expand their technical skills. Focus is on artistic process, purpose, and discipline and/or specific craft elements (across genres), as well as essential techniques and current practices.
