Through this studio-based program, students will deepen their relationship to materials that connect them to the craft of making. Students will apply new and traditional techniques as well as learn their cultural and historical significance. 

Students will focus on making their own functional and expressive objects and learn the critical and entrepreneurial skills needed to succeed. Students will also be taught by top textile, jewelry, and ceramics artists and designers, and develop their own portfolio and career path.

The studios are equipped with the traditional tools and new technology needed to prepare graduates to work as artists, designers, and craftspeople. Program graduates span the world working in ceramics, jewelry, textiles, fashion, costume, interiors, museums, and research.
