PORTFOLIO REVIEWS 12-2 pm
If you’d like to show us your artwork, we’d love to see it! Stick around after the admissions presentation and you’ll have a chance to sit down with our staff and have your work reviewed.
At the Art Academy, all students are required to submit a porfolio for admissions. We’re looking for the type of student who has to make art every day. The writers who can’t help but journal and produce regardless of class assignments. We believe in mentoring those who take their creative work seriously, who have already been finding their voice! You deserve to be surrounded by fellow artists and designers who get it.
