Art as Salve: A Close Looking Tour

Loading Classes

Rooted in the concept of Healing Justice, Art as Salve showcases responses and interventions to generational trauma and violence with the hope of impactful change to mend our bodies, hearts and minds. The exhibit, Art as Salve, asks the question – how might art function as a holistic intervention for survivors of oppression and violence? What would happen if art was used as a symbol for healing?

BIPOC Curatorial Program curator Ashleigh Dior Coren leads a close looking tour through the New Art Corridor with details on the works she selected for the exhibition. Explore the theme of Art as Salve and healing justice in a small group. End the visit to the gallery with an exercise to reflect on the past few years and create your own piece of art.

Summer Camp Withdrawal: All withdrawals for our Summer Camp must be made by June 9 to receive a refund, less a $25 administrative fee per week. For any tuition payments paid by credit card, your full convenience fees will be deducted from your refund.

Student Absences: No refunds will be made for student absences including absences due to COVID or other sickness. We understand that students may have to miss class for a variety of reasons, but New Art decides whether or not to run a class before the term starts based on enrollment and sufficient tuition to cover our costs. Refunding students for individual absences makes it difficult to calculate a breakeven point for each class.

Faculty Absences: All efforts will be made to find a substitute for faculty absences. In the event that a class must be cancelled, students will be notified by email, which will be sent to the address provided during registration. One makeup class will be scheduled each term for a single absence by a faculty member. For multiple absences, a substitute faculty member will be assigned. There will be no refunds for faculty absences.

Scholarships: Limited scholarships are available according to need. Please apply here.
