The APS Printmaking course is a comprehensive 3-year full-time study program. During your time here, you'll explore various aspects of art, including drawing, critical studies, visual literacy, and printmaking. What truly sets APS apart is our commitment to cultivating the "APS HABITS of MIND" in our students. These habits of mind align with our core values, and they include creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and community engagement, among others. We call it "I SEE U," reflecting our dedication to fostering artistic vision and awareness.
After graduation, you step into a lively and close-knit community of artists who are committed to supporting and inspiring one another. This community is more than just a network; it’s a space where you can continue to share ideas, collaborate on projects, and challenge yourself creatively. The connections you make here are valuable, providing you with ongoing encouragement and opportunities to grow as an artist. Your work doesn’t just stay within the studio, it becomes part of a larger conversation in the art world. You’ll have the chance to showcase your creations in galleries and participate in prominent art fairs, where your work will be seen by a broader audience, including collectors and art enthusiasts. These exhibitions provide you with the exposure needed to build your reputation and advance your career. Being part of this community also means that you’re not alone in your artistic journey. You’ll have access to a wealth of knowledge and experience from fellow artists and mentors who have walked the path before you. This ongoing relationship helps you stay connected, inspired, and motivated, ensuring that your art continues to evolve. The support system you find here is invaluable, offering both professional opportunities and personal growth that extend far beyond the moment you graduate.
