The Myers School of Art at The University of Akron is excited to once again be offering a FREE pre-college summer program for rising junior and senior high school art students.
Participants will work directly with Myers faculty and staff to create a personal narrative while discovering all that our art and design school has to offer. This FREE week-long in-person experience will allow students to take advantage of our school’s reputation of working across disciplines.
