The program curriculum, delivered in approximately 120 hours over a four-week period, emphasizes artistic development, safety certifications, project planning, business and marketing fundamentals, portfolio development and the tools and techniques used in large-scale outdoor art projects. Students will learn how to design, plan, execute and manage urban art installations responsibly, professionally and sustainably.
A significant portion of the program will focus on mural design and painting. Students will have opportunities to apply their learning through hands-on projects, including adding a mural on a dedicated practice wall recently installed by the City of St. Thomas Parks and Recreation Department.
