Marathons: Intensive Workshops in Drawing, Painting, and Sculpture
Marathons: Intensive Workshops in Drawing, Painting, and Sculpture
Marathons engage the practices of drawing, painting, and sculpture as direct methodologies for understanding one’s experience in the world. Open to artists of all levels, courses are taught daily in-person or virtually in real time from 9am–6pm ET. Participating artists are exposed to a wide range of process-driven approaches to making art, new visual languages, and experimentation, guided by extensive group and individual critiques. Marathons are offered five times a year: 10-day In-Person and Virtual Marathons are offered at the start of the Fall (September) and Spring (January) semesters and during Summer Session (June and July); Virtual 5-day Intersession Marathons are held mid-semester (November and March). The innovation and depth of these programs expand participants’ fluency with materials and lead to new ways of thinking that continue far beyond each program’s conclusion. Artists may also be interested in NYSS’ full-time Certificate program (in-person and virtual options).
