 Workshops One of the perks of being an advanced student is attending one of the special Workshops built around a central theme or medium. The most recent was a 3-Day event where students studied Monet and over the Mid-Week Sessions produced their own finished work in Impressionism. Students attending these special sessions meet for several hours each day and create their project start to finish in 3 days.
