Continuing Education is designed for students of all skill levels,
and our students have a variety of motivations for taking our classes.
Some have a clear vision and specific goal; others have a strong
desire to explore.
Because we receive a number of requests for
advice in scheduling, we now offer Information & Advising Night.
Faculty and administrative staff will be on hand to discuss the
details of various courses, review artwork, and assist in registration.
Students may take courses in whatever they
desire. However, many students find it helpful to know there are
suggested paths. Introduction to Design & Color and Basic Drawing
are considered foundations for any artistic pursuit.
Below are a few examples of common paths that have been suggested:
