ORIENTATION DATES

Print Studio orientations will be held the first half of the semester.
Start the process by filling out the Orientation Access Form.

Please expect Orientation to take about 1 hour.

Orientations acquaint you with the studio, and the equipment you are able to access within it.

Orientations do not teach you how to use equipment. For that, you need to enroll in a class or take credits with a faculty member. You may be asked to show work that you made used the technique you are requesting access to.

You must be able to work alone in the studio, unsupervised with your technique.
