Summer Intensive Institute II 2009: Brown University

PASCA is pleased to host Brown University's Summer and Continuing Studies Studio Art program in July of 2009. This is an intensive studio experience for foundation and advanced students and the live-work environment is often a bridge to graduate studies.
This intensive institute is open to non-Brown students and interested parties should visit Brown University's website to learn more about the course offerings, faculty, to inquire, and to apply.

Also available is a joint program in studio art and French language with the American University of Paris. Students who participate in the joint program spend a portion of June in Paris at the AUP in French immersion, and travel to Pont-Aven in July for the Brown Summer Studies Studio Art Program.
