The Pre-College Portfolio Prep Class is an intensive experience in art that is offered on Saturdays in both the fall and spring semesters for high school students looking to prepare their portfolios for the college admissions process. Students earn one college - credit upon successful completion. The course includes observational drawing, design, composition, color theory, and issues surrounding the making of art. Although this course is primarily focused on observational drawing and painting, mixed media compositions, photography, and other media may be explored. This course is designed to help students develop a strong foundation of skills, develop professional work habits and create a portfolio suitable for college admission.
