Massart Announces the Summer Institute Schedules
Each summer, Massart presents intensive courses for art educators, which can be taken for either graduate credit or professional development points. The two institutes are held on the Massart campus and focus on classroom content, educator support and renewal, studio exploration and technology integration in the art classroom.
