Last summer, 21 students spent a month in New York City studying at the New York Academy of Art. Figure drawing, painting and other art classes were just part of the experience for the students. Going to a wide variety of art galleries gave the students a fresh perspective to both timeless and current works of art.
“It’s pretty eye-opening for them and very exciting to watch them as they start to experience what’s really going on in the art world,” said John Volk, one of the professors in the art department that heads the trip every other year.
