Weekly Art Class

Portfolio & Scholarship Development Class

For 11th and 12th graders who are interested in majoring in Art or Design 


In this class, students will get advice and guidance on the finalization of their portfolios. Instructors will guide them through the art college admission process for the schools of their choice.

Schedule

Chantilly

Tuesdays at 6:30 PM

See Schedule

The syllabus of this specialty art class includes college admission essay writing and editing, preparing for interviews and portfolio reviews, and educating art students on what the admission officers are looking for in their portfolios. 


They will learn how to represent themselves in the best possible light and gain knowledge that is often included in introductory art courses in college. 


 In our classes, students don’t just learn from their teachers — they also learn from each other. They give each other feedback and support throughout their time in class together. They form lasting friendships and bond over their love of art. Our students form lasting friendships that go beyond the classroom!  

Is your high schooler ready to work on their college art portfolio?
