Ox-Bow Summer School of Art and Artists Residency

Pre-College Program for High School Juniors and Seniors

The Ox-Bow Pre-College Program is designed for advanced high school juniors and seniors who are considering pursuing a degree in the visual arts. Students are given the opportunity to evaluate and strengthen their commitment to the study of art and receive college-level instruction. Other Ox-Bow classes run concurrently with these courses, providing Pre-College students with a sense of community as they interact with other students taking classes that week.

Drawing upon the natural terrain of Ox-Bow, students explore drawing, design, composition, and creativity. A wide variety of drawing materials are used. Slide lectures, critiques, and meetings with visiting artists are included each evening.

All Pre-College students are required to reside on-campus during the course. Students are chaperoned and rules and regulations are strictly enforced. An adult chaperone is housed with Pre-College students throughout the week. Students must provide their own transportation to and from Ox-Bow. Pre-College students are not allowed to have a vehicle on campus.

Thanks to the generosity of Herb and Karen Tews, Ox-Bow will disseminate $10,000 in scholarships to students attending Ox-Bow. We invite Pre-College students to apply for this scholarship. Click here to download the application.
