Ashcan Art Studio offers an array of art technique and portfolio preparation courses for students of varying ages, from middle school through high school, college, and graduate school age.
The 12 Month Portfolio Development Program helps students prepare for the art school admissions process and the creative development of an outstanding portfolio.
Your portfolio is THE MOST critical component to an arts-geared College or Graduate School application. Developing a unique and coherent body of work is essential to the pursuit of higher studies in the arts.
The Visual Art Programs at Ashcan will help you stimulate creative and critical thinking through the practice of experimentation in the studio. Process, open- dialogue, and familiarization with materials are all promoted and focused upon. We encourage artistic expression and experimentation in order to develop skills, confidence, and openness to new creative ideas and cultures. More importantly, however, students come out prepared with an impressive portfolio to propel them to their arts-geared next step in higher education and their future career.
