A Trip to the Zoo?!
Remember, this is an art college - we have very good reasons for our students to visit the zoo! In this case, first-year students in Drawing 101 complete quick sketches throughout the day based on the live animals. Then, they are charged with creating a unique fantasy animal based on the sketches they completed. Fun and educational!

Featured Project: Black and White Newspaper Ads
Creating an advertisement in black and white can be challenging because the impact of color is lost. Designers must compensate by making good use of the ad space and utilizing clever headlines to capture the viewer's attention. Students in the second year concentrate on learning the technicalities of black and white advertising, applying this knowledge multiple times in their educational career.
