Applying:
Art in Amsterdam is ideal
for those seeking an intense period of time, away from home, in
which to work on their art while immersed in a highly stimulating
European environment.
The program is designed for working
artists, teachers, and serious students who are looking for the
time, space, and challenge of working independently, but within
a community of other artists. Course
Credit is available through the program's affiliation
with Massachusetts College of Art. This program is also a perfect
opportunity for those who have been away from their art making
for a while and are looking for a kick-start or an adventurous
and supportive way to return to their work.
We
are looking for committed, curious,
and motivated participants.
Each year we bring together a collection of artists from diverse
backgrounds and ages, and with various levels of experience and
training. Some combine this experience with other travel in Europe
before or after the program.
