Registration for summer courses is open. There is still space available in several courses and summer is a great time to make some progress on your degree.

Murals contribute to the social, cultural, and economic factors involved in art in public spaces. This studio art course introduces students to painting large-scale collaborative murals. Students will generate ideas, plan preliminary mural sketches, design compositions, and paint a large-scale mural. Students learn to work with a client, create a visual identity for a business, and design a large-scale public piece. Students will also be scissor lift certified and learn basic transfer methods. Together, our goal is to bring daily life to contemporary art.
