Courses
Small classes ensure personalized, in-depth learning. Rigorous course work includes hands-on studio classes and labs in both a chosen Area of Concentration (three days per week) and Foundation Studio (two days per week). Courses meet 9:00am to 4:00pm Monday through Friday and include homework. 3 units of college credit are awarded upon successful completion of the program. (Note: Summer of Art is not suited for students in search of a recreational program.)

Faculty
Summer of Art courses are taught by award-winning instructors that are practicing professionals, many of whom teach in Otis' Bachelor of Fine Arts and Master of Fine Arts programs. Contact with these instructors provides a glimpse into the working lives of professional artists and designers and introduces students to many career choices in art, design and related fields.

Final Exhibition
Working with their instructors, each student selects his or her best work for the final exhibition. The work is displayed throughout the campus, giving students the experience of being part of a gallery show with their peers, while sharing their artwork with family and friends.
