Project-Based Mentorship, Portfolio Development, and Studio Access

We know high school students are busy. Through this semester-long, project-based mentorship, students will meet individually with a mentor every other week while receiving ongoing access to studio facilities, creative resources, and a community of fellow creators. Between mentor sessions, students will work independently at their own pace toward completing and presenting a high-quality creative project.
