Time period is particularly flexible for involvement in the project-based initiative.
The Creative Process is traveling to universities around the world, so opportunities to participate beyond May to July are possible, adaptable to the student’s free time and interests.
Time period is flexible, but are there any dates a student should be available?
May to July is the listed time period but is adaptable to your schedule.If we can have an initial video meeting in May or June that would be great. If you have summer projects, then we might outline collaborations and resume later in the year.
Skillset: All Levels Welcome - BA or Graduate Students
If you have a relationship to the art department and have assisted in exhibitions or cultural events at Chapman University, this is ideal because that way it’s fun, has synergy with activities you are already doing, and will not entail many extra hours.
It is also a way of sharing your creativity: visual/performing arts, film, writing...in a variety of publications and reaching a wider audience through The Creative Process traveling exhibition.
Students from all branches of the arts/humanities/design are especially welcome.
Note
All collaboration is appreciated and is completely adaptable to your core skills. We have collaborated with students from a variety of disciplines, including STEM, business, and communications. What is most essential is to be curious, have initiative and a desire to learn. Your knowledge of the local artistic and educational community helps us celebrate ional community helps us celebrate Chapman University and Orange's creative talent.
A number of our participating students have discovered through The Creative Process that they excel in areas outside of their field of study and have gone on to jobs in those disciplines.
