An open studio oriented toward helping the development of individual initiative where concentration in multidisciplinary studies can be developed to fruition on an advanced level.

An emphasis is placed on the development of ideas and content in the individual student’s work, which is supported by a series of individual and group critiques by faculty and visiting artists.
