Careers in the Arts Fair 2015

The Careers in the Arts Fair aims to expose educational and professional opportunities within the visual arts and design to high school students. We aim to provide access to professionals in different points of their careers who can share insight on their success while being sensitive to challenges often faced by first generation college students from low-income backgrounds, students of color and students of varying immigration statuses. Based on the experiences shared, students will build on the tools & resources needed to make well-informed decisions about college and career paths.
