Studio Arts Program

The SUF Studio Arts Program is a unique opportunity to research and explore creative approaches while staying in one of the world's most renowned cities in the history of art. Stressing creative growth and a participatory educational experience, the SUF Studio Arts Department is dedicated to helping students understand the links between the rich history of art and the significance of contemporary artistic expression. In tandem with their studio practice, students visit museums, churches, markets and cultural events, engaging with the vibrant city of Florence. Through this process students come to understand their position within this important historic context as well as formulate their own evolving motivations for art making within a contemporary and international context.
