New York City VA Course Details

Deepen your understanding of the visual arts through classes, hands-on workshops, and excursions! Participate in workshops on street art and photography taught by artists in the field and visit a world-class art museum. All you need to bring is a cameraphone. We'll provide you with everything else you need to get your creativity flowing!

No experience necessary! This is a fun, encouraging environment for you to test out your interests and push your skills to the next level.

To accommodate travel time between the airport and class, plan to arrive for your course on a flight NO LATER than 11:00 am on Friday and depart no earlier than 7:30 pm on Sunday.

Attendance is mandatory beginning on Friday with check-in, and does not end until Sunday at 4:30 pm. Students are expected to attend the full weekend and complete all assignments to receive their Completion Letter. We understand emergencies and important scheduling conflicts can occur, so please contact the program coordinator as soon as possible if there is a situation that prevents you from meeting any of these requirements.
 
After registering for this course, you’ll get a link to join Canvas the day that your pre-assignments become available.
Hours include pre-weekend assignments, post-weekend assignments, and a course evaluation. Check with your au pair agency regarding hours and credits, as requirements vary. Scheduled activities may be subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances and may be different from previous weekends.

What better place to study than in New York City? Participate in classes and interactive workshops taught by local staff with international experience! Practice your English language skills in one of the most diverse cities in the country, or expand your artistic talents with an Arts & Entertainment course! Art topics include sketching and photography for Visual Arts students, and drama, dance, and musical theater for Performing Arts students (depending on staff availability). Step out of the classroom and experience the dream of studying in The Big Apple. You'll leave these three-day weekends with a better understanding of New York City and yourself.

Beds are limited and may sell out; they are available on a first-come, first-served basis. You can add a 2-night stay (Friday & Saturday) at the hostel in a shared room with 8-20 beds. 

 

There will be a $50 administration fee for all housing refunds. Refunds only allowed up to 30 days prior to the weekend start date.
