Experience the wonders of the arts in this great combination course! First students discover the masters of modern art—giants like Picasso, Van Gogh, Jackson Pollock, Georgia O’Keefe and Henri Matisse—then reproduce their styles while developing their own fine-art technique in various mediums, such as ink and paint.

Then students learn about photography techniques while touring the campus behind the lens of a digital camera. They learn about composition and explore photo-editing techniques with iPhoto®. By the end of the week, students will even have their own fine art and photography portfolio upon completion of the adventure!
