For students from age two to the most senior. Our part-time courses are offered during four terms each year. In Winter, Spring and Fall the courses are offered once a week for ten weeks. During the Summer Term the courses run for a full week.
CONTINUING EDUCATION CERTIFICATE
Upon successful completion of 15 approved courses at your own pace, a student is eligible to receive a Certificate of Continuing Education. Details are available at the office.
ADVANCED STUDIES
This is an innovative program to meet a special need for many graduates from fine art programs at other schools, colleges and universities. It is an assisted period of personal development between university and the isolation of a private studio or prior to graduate studies: the need for a time to assimilate learning and experience which is necessary to personal artistic direction.
PHOTOGRAPHIC, CERAMIC, SCULPTURE AND PRINTMAKING FACILITIES
Complete, well-equipped facilities are available to students who are registered in appropriate DVSA classes. Current students with demonstrated skills in a requested area may be able to use the facilities with instructor approval.
