Summer Art Workshop

The Heard Museum Guild, in partnership with the Heard Museum and Arizona State University West, annually offers 10 high school students an expanded opportunity to explore art in a higher education setting.

Students selected for the weeklong Summer Art Workshop live on campus, work with art professors and artists, network with other Native students and explore creative processes in a variety of media.  The workshop culminates with an exhibit of the week’s work and a luncheon for parents and guests.  For many, this is a life-defining experience that inspires their decision to enroll in college and is the first step in their careers as professional artists.

Students in grades 10 through 12 are selected by a panel of judges from entries to the Student Art Show.  Invitees are asked to write a personal statement indicating their educational and artistic goals and submit recommendations from two teachers.
