Explore the Arts and Architecture

The University of Pennsylvania School of Design offers a four-week intensive studio program in art and architecture.

Art students choose major courses in drawing, filmmaking, animation, photography or sculpture. In addition, they select two-week projects in graphic design, web design, clay wheel throwing, printmaking and book arts, oil painting, experimental photography or filmmaking. Architecture students follow a studio intensive every day and do not study a minor.

Working with Penn faculty from around the world, you will build your portfolio, experiment with new disciplines and improve existing skills. The curriculum is taken from regular Penn courses and is sequenced and paced for the age and experience of the student body. Classes are small and individualization within projects is expected.
