The Howard County Public School's Gifted and Talented Art Program
Below are two different application packets for the GT art program based on grade level. Read all the information at home with your parents. Build your portfolio to the exact specifications outlined in the packets below or you will be eliminated.
I will make myself available for advice, direction and technical help. My best advice is to practice Observational Drawing. Look at something and draw it. Jurors want to see this. Although portfolios are due in the spring, September is not too early to get started. Jurors do NOT want to see comics, anime or traced images.
If accepted, GT art class will start in September 2013-2014 for about
14 Saturdays of the school year from 9am till noon. You are responsible for transportation. Classes meet at a school within the county.
THIS IS NOT AN ART CLUB. Attendance is mandatory. The program is free and you can choose to stay in it through 12th grade. An art portfolio can earn significant merit scholarship for college, no matter what your major. It demonstrates your long term dedication to improving your skills and engaging in a culturally and historically significant human endeavor. Keep working and good luck!
