2010 Illustration Academy and TAD!

Hey guys! Here's an update on the situation with this summer's Illustration Academy. A lot of folks from Ringling and beyond have asked me about it. This is the official announcement from John English. Also some additional info on other great programs!:

"Announcing the 2010 Illustration Academy!

The Illustration Academy’s 2010 summer program will be held in two locations, Kansas City and Richmond, Virginia. The Illustration Academy is now operating as a special program within The Art Department's (TAD) Illustration Major. The 2010 Illustration Academy will be held in the TAD studios (Pods) that are being developed to accommodate the immersion component of TAD.

The Illustration Academy will begin May 31st and run through June 25th. Students will have their choice of either location, Kansas City or Richmond, as positions are available. The same stellar professionals will make up The Illustration Academy Faculty. It will be a major advantage to have the Academy in our own space. We will finally have total control. I am presently speaking with a major convention hotel about housing for the Academy students and instructors. The hotel is less than 1 mile from the TAD Pod studio space.

Dates May 31- June 25th
Locations Kansas City & Richmond VA
Fee $3900
Housing Information coming shortly

More information coming on The Illustration Academy, VLP and CA.org sites very soon!"

hope this is helpful!
