S3 Portfolio Prep Studio

In this hands-on studio course, students will not only develop new works of art to round out their portfolios for upcoming college applications, but they will also select, revise, and edit their existing works. Through dynamic workshops with SAIC faculty and admissions staff, students will discover the most effective way to document and organize their work and represent their unique points of view as artists to the colleges of their choice. This course also strongly emphasizes studio time and faculty support to create final projects that will enhance student's overall portfolio presentation. Additional resources such as artist presentations, and the Art Institute of Chicago supplement the course curriculum.

Registration deadline: July 5 at 12 p.m.
