Students choose either a two or three-year program.

These current students speak to the value of the program:

> I’m getting an MFA-caliber education every day . . . what’s exceptional about the experience is the emphasis on preparing the artist for the market and what to expect when you get there. —Dennis Bourke

> I am a painter. My work goes step by step with my personal growth. I have been moving between Milan, London, Warsaw and New York, where I received a scholarship to attend the Studio Art Intensive. The program is a gathering point for international artists coming from a variety of fields and working in different media. It’s flexible, open- minded, stimulating–the best place for me to keep developing my unique language in visual arts. —Malgosia Malinowska

> I love the freedom of exploring different media, techniques, and forms of artistic expression. The small class size allows for plenty of one-on-one time with teachers, each with their own style and area of expertise. —Jennifer Brickman

> Compared to other programs I’ve studied in, this is a warm and friendly place. —Carolynne Fromme
