Credits: 3

This senior level course aligns with Fine Art industry standards and professional experience to prepare students with essential knowledge and practical strategies necessary to effectively seek out venues for their own art. This includes gallery representation, co-operative and alternate spaces, commissions, government grants, competitions, residencies, and graduate schools. The class visits area artists’ studios, galleries, art centers, and museums. Students are exposed to working professionals such as artists, art administrators, gallery directors, and museum curators. Students will also learn how to properly display, store, and ship art using sound archival methods. At the conclusion of the course, students will have created professional-grade portfolio materials and an online presence, which includes an artist statement, resume, and documentation of artwork. Students use their portfolios to submit applications to exhibitions, residency programs, grants, and graduate schools.
