A blank canvas. An empty stage. Silence. Right now, your future is pure potential. Now is the time to let your creativity take you as far as you can go, and then further. Sure, it can be a little scary, but don’t let fear stop you. You’re boundless and that’s what makes you an artist.

At the UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS PRE-COLLEGE SUMMER INSTITUTE you will be part of the nation’s most dynamic and intensive summer arts program for high school students. Whether you’re wondering what college is like at an art school or you’re looking to push your art into uncharted territory, UArts upholds more than 130 years of experience in bringing world-renown practicing artists together to teach and create and collaborate with students from almost every conceivable art, design and performing arts discipline.

Students said the experience helped them prepare for college

At UArts you’ll be immersed in art from the inside out.

You will attend performances, gallery shows, lectures, master classes and museum exhibitions in one of the oldest, largest and most artistically innovative cities in the country. And our campus, running the length of Philadelphia’s arts and culture district in Center City, is at the heart of it. You’re an artist. COME CREATE.

THE SHOW

Chances are you have more than one interest when it comes to art. That’s why in your four weeks here you’ll dive deep into the medium you’re passionate about, but also learn to express yourself through new processes. You’ll choose up to four courses, where you will hone your skills and learn new techniques while building your visual and verbal vocabulary.

The final exhibition, screenings and performances are an opportunity for you to make your statement and give you the opportunity to curate a show, hang an exhibition, write an artist statement and share your work with an audience.

Our faculty of professional, practicing artists will mentor you as you explore the conceptual, creative and technical possibilities of your chosen subjects.

Select one or two majors and two elective courses to create a customized learning experience that gets you where you want to go. Surrounded by our world-class facilities, peers from around the world, and personally invested faculty, you will stretch your imagination and artistic limits until you generate the art only you can create.

THE TAKE AWAY Your finished works, new friends and the three college credits you’ll have earned are just the beginning. The Summer Institute is designed to give you the problem-solving skills, technical expertise and creative processes you need to be the artist you want to be. You will emerge from the program with new skills, a new vocabulary and an increased confidence as an artist. In addition to developing a strong portfolio, you will also be included in the annual “Look Book” with images of your work and artist statement printed alongside those of other remarkable students in the program.

THE EXTRAS When in Philadelphia, do as the Philadelphians do. On Saturdays you will do just that as you take in the city’s cultural and artistic sites such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Barnes Foundation Museum, the Fabric Workshop and Museum, and the Institute of Contemporary Art. Your classes will also have guest lecturers, including the University’s Admissions staff who will talk about preparing for college admissions. You’ll get a one-on-one review with an Admissions counselor. Rising seniors can use this towards a fall 2016 college application.

THE GOODS

CORE CURRICULUM

Writing takes more than paper and pencil or an open laptop. You need to have something to say, a story to tell, and most importantly, you need your own voice to tell it. In the Summer Institute Creative Writing program you’ll spend four weeks with professional writers and teachers who are passionate about expanding your range and helping you hone in on your unique voice as a writer. You’ll study fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction and playwriting in a workshop setting that allows you to be a writer, editor, reader and critic while gaining a better understanding of your craft from the inside out. Develop critical vocabulary, identify connections in your work and the work of your peers, and generate new pieces that will broaden your portfolio.

Use new skills to refine and publish work in a collaborative zine and a group journal.

And, since collaboration leads to inspiration, you will also take an elective in Art, Media + Design to explore other artistic processes. We’ll make your voice stronger, what you say is up to you.
