This course provides a hands-on introduction to everything our art program offers—a creative “appetizer” giving students a taste of each major studio area. Over the semester, students rotate through short units inspired by our upper-level courses, including 2D design, painting, clay, photography, and fashion/3D design. Projects may include pattern design, zentangles, perspective drawings, abstract and still-life painting, handbuilt clay pieces, darkroom photography, and visible mending on clothing.

This class is ideal for freshmen or anyone curious about which studio electives they may want to pursue.
