Please read our health and safety guidelines provided below before registering

This five-week program is for motivated and passionate high school artists who are interested in building their drawing and painting skills, learning some printmaking and mixed media processes, and finishing up with a very personal final project.

Students will work from live models and other classroom set-ups, as well as the outdoors when weather permits. Observational work will be the focus, but some work from imagination and memory will also be encouraged to tell personal stories. Each week builds on the previous week and skills are cumulative. The work of master and contemporary artists will be introduced each day.

All art supplies are provided. All students need to bring is a large portfolio (can be a cardboard portfolio) for artwork, and enthusiasm for making lots of art. 

WSS is just a short walk from the Dupont Circle Red Line Metro Station.

Limited needs-based scholarships are available. Applications are due April 21st. Please refer to our Work Study & Scholarship webpage for details.
