Artists interested in UBC Okanagan’s visual arts program are welcome to attend upcoming Creative Days events at the university on Saturday, October 21, and Saturday, November 18.
Creative Days workshops are an opportunity for anyone interested in the Visual Arts Bachelor of Fine Arts program or people wanting to find out more about the visual arts courses at UBC Okanagan through fun, hands-on projects.
The workshops will allow participants to learn something new and see what a university-level course is like. There is also an opportunity to work with university faculty and staff, and have the chance to meet and talk with current students about program choices.
UBC will also host a Portfolio Day in January that will give students an opportunity to begin preparing their application package and portfolio for the program.
There are limited seats available for some of the workshops, so pre-registration is encouraged. To register, contact UBC’s Visual Arts Coordinator Briar Craig at Briar.Craig@ubc.ca or 250 807-9765.
