Tips for prospective D/FA Conservatory students:
1) Take as many Envision day classes as possible before you apply, this will help you have a stronger portfolio
2) Pay attention and work hard in your art classes since your teachers will be writing evals for you
3) Put 100% effort into all your work
4) Have a positive attitude, be open to trying methods/materials, be willing to work with others
D/FA Conservatory meets on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3:30 to 5:30 pm over the course of the entire school year. Students in D/FA Conservatory also work on a variety of public art projects, including ArtWalk murals and Chalk LaStrada.
