Description

This 3 month portfolio class is designed to prepare middle school students for NYCDOE public art high school auditions. The program will engage children in the arts while demystifying the audition process and building strong, authentic portfolio pieces. Students will develop foundational observational drawing skills and gain confidence presenting their artistic voice. The course will emphasize process, growth, and craftsmanship rather than “perfect” final products.

This course will start with the Magical Sandwich and self portrait components of the portfolio. For additional support with still life and figure study, check out our “Observational Drawing for Young Artists” course also happening this fall.

This class is designed for middle school students (grades 6-8), including beginners through advanced artists, interested in applying to NYC public art high schools.

Program Goals

Clarify NYCDOE art high school audition expectations and portfolio requirements
Present public art high school options, including schools that do not require portfolios
Support students in completing required and commonly requested portfolio pieces

Ensure each student leaves with cohesive portfolio ready pieces for auditions
