    Description

    This program is designed for artists grades 9 - 12. Students in 8th grade may be considered with portfolio review and recommendation.

    Class meets Saturdays 9:00 am - 12:00 pm and Tuesdays 3:30 - 6:30 pm. 

    Join us for a six-week in-person program offered to cur­rent high school stu­dents (grades 9 – 12) inter­ested in build­ing new skills for their cre­ative pur­suits. This studio-based program helps you develop a strong creative portfolio and includes opportunities for critique, portfolio reviews, and guidance on documenting and presenting artwork. The course includes ample time and space to develop your own creative work, while also providing lessons in art materials and methods, art history, and professional practices. Students who complete this program will be eligible to participate in an annual showcase at Crooked Tree Arts Center.

    This class is taught by Egan Franks Holzhausen, a studio arts instructor and professional teaching-artist who provides individualized instruction to help students reach their goals and create portfolio quality work. Students in 8th grade may be considered for the program (as space allows) with a recommendation from an art teacher, mentor, CTAC faculty, and/or a portfolio.   

    SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE.
    For our introductory year, this program will be offered at reduced tuition. Need-based and merit-based scholarships are available. Scholarships may cover up to full tuition.
