Inspiring Creative Risks
Second-year student Daniel Villalobos said the Massey Scholarship totally changed the direction of his artistic career. Because of this funding, he now feels he can take risks and step outside of his comfort zone.
Focusing on Wellness
“I needed support, but ... I didn’t know which resources were available,” said student Sonja Mott. Enter the Disability and Learning Resource Center, where Mott was able to find the right accommodations to support their artistic journey.
Securing Internships
For student Riley Gunderson, an internship with Kavi Gupta Gallery wasn’t just an opportunity for hands-on learning, it was a chance to diversify representation in the arts. The School’s internship stipends made it possible.
