THE RESIDENCY PROGRAM - Available to all NYC Public Schools Get to know us by starting with a short-term visual arts program that is flexible and tailored to meet your school's needs. One of STUDIO's professional artists will design a curriculum that gives students, Pre-K to grade 12, the opportunity to experiment with the art media of your choice and to explore a particular visual or academic theme or course of study. Choose a six- or fourteen-week residency. Available year-round and during after-school. |
