Workshop 1

1 unit

MFA in Visual Art students participate in a minimum of three workshops each semester for their first two semesters. Workshops are defined as one-day experiences that allow students to gain valuable skills in low-risk/high-commitment settings, including Fox Fridays in the Sam Fox School, the Skandalaris Center, and The Teaching Center -- all on the Washington University campus -- and also in settings around St. Louis. At the end of each semester, students prepare a written report summarizing the workshops attended and skills acquired. Participation in workshops is certified by the student's faculty mentor and evaluated on a pass/fail basis.
