Workshops and Continuing education

Workshops, summer intensives, and night classes are one-off educational experiences that concentrate on a single skill or approach, and which do not require prior training. Participants range from avid beginners wishing to learn new skills to working professionals seeking to sharpen their approach; there are even classes for high school students. Taught by Studio Incamminati instructors and vetted visiting instructors, workshops take place throughout the year, either on site at Studio Incamminati’s Philadelphia location or at selected locations around the United States. Whereas workshops are day-long back-to-back sessions that run for two to five consecutive days, the intensive courses and night classes run once a week for 8 weeks. In some cases, pro-rating may be possible.

If you are a professional artist who wishes to conduct a class at Studio Incamminati studios, or are an aspiring artist with a specific programming request, please contact: info@studioincamminati.edu
