Additional Summer Ceramics and Sculpture Classes

We have been approved to list new summer courses for 2010.

These will be ceramics and a few sculpture courses (upper level only for majors) for the July session. There will be a few spots open in Ceramics I (Art 351) but students have to get permission from me first as I am only letting a few folks in.

SPREAD THE WORD!!!

We still need to get between 12 and 15 students for the courses to go.

Look for it on SOAR later this week!

Courses to be offered-

ART 351 (only a few seats by permission)
352, 353, 451, 452, 453, 362, and 492
M/W/F from 8:00 to 11:10 AM and T/TH 8:00 to 12:30 PM
June 29 to July 30

Juried Shows!

As you might imagine things had been crazy and this blog became the main victim of the busy times. Oh well when things get tough, somethings got to give.

Listed here are some important links for ceramic juried shows.

I can't express how important entering shows can be for the student (for all artists). One of our most recent grads, Ken, got acceptances to a whole bunch of excellent grad schools because he had more than a half dozen juried shows in just the past year. Even if you don't plan on going to grad schools, they are important for your resume and get you jobs and customers.
