Amongst high school students (especially grades 11 and 12), one of the biggest reasons for summer camps and programmes is the need to get started on university portfolios. Unfortunately, many students leave their fashion design and visual arts learning until the end of high school, resulting in an urgency to learn and produce a quality, university level portfolio in very little time, when in fact, quality portfolios can often take up to two years to produce.
Many of our summer camps and programmes are set up specifically with the older grades in mind. We offer some of the very best and most effective prep programmes in Woodbridge, Vaughan, York Region, Toronto, Brampton, Maple, Kleinburg, Richmond Hill, Thornhill and Mississauga. Most people think that a portfolio is an easy thing; a collection of a few paintings and drawings, maybe some fashion illustrations. However, this is an extremely inaccurate and sad conclusion. A portfolio is, and always should be, a collection of your VERY BEST work, NOT your very first work. Your portfolio will be going up against thousands of others, so it is crucial that only your VERY FINEST work is included in it. It is during the summer months, when students have more time to create, work and focus that we concentrate on the background learning and necessary preparation needed leading up to the execution of high quality university level portfolios. After all, you wouldn’t send your child to university without four years of high school, so why would you send him to a university design or art programme without four years of fashion and visual arts learning?
All summer camps and programmes run for four to five consecutive days each, start at 9:00 am and end at 5:00 pm and are taught by industry professionals.
