SRL's are designed around a specific interdisciplinary theme that is not bound to a specific idea of medium or production. Classes are limited to 6 students and often do not meet on a regular basis throughout the semester. Depending on the course some courses may have a travel component. These courses may be unique to the timing of a specific one time event and are not repeated. In the past, classes have ranged from topics related to professional development, including grant writing, gallery economics, and professional development to more theoretical propositions, such as the concept of failure within a studio practice or an exploration of the grotesque in contemporary art. They give students crucial experience in creating fully realized projects that are embedded in the art world, and they help them to cultivate a network of fellow practitioners and supporting institutions that can be built upon after graduation.
