Mission Statement

WE ARE AN ACADEMY OF PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS THAT ENCOURAGES INDIVIDUALITY AND INNOVATION THROUGH SKILLS-BASED TRAINING. WITH A FACULTY OF INTERNATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED ARTISTS AND SCHOLARS, WE OFFER A COMPREHENSIVE, MULTI-YEAR PROGRAM OF DISCIPLINED STUDY, INTEGRATING RIGOROUS STUDIO INSTRUCTION IN DRAWING AND PAINTING WITH ANATOMY, SCULPTURE, AND TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY APPROACHES TO THE HISTORY OF ART. OUR GEOGRAPHY, LOCATED ALONG THE CONNECTICUT RIVER AND THE HEART OF THE CELEBRATED LYME ART COLONY, AND BETWEEN THE METROPOLITAN CENTERS OF BOSTON AND NEW YORK, IS IMBUED WITH HISTORY, AND REMAINS AN ACTIVE SITE OF PROGRESSIVE ARTISTS' CONGREGATION AND COMARADERIE. STUDENTS AT OUR ACADEMY PARTICIPATE IN THIS COMMUNITY, CONTINUING AN UNBROKEN TRADITION OF ART EDUCATION AND PRACTICE WHILE FINDING THEIR OWN CREATIVE VOICE. FROM THIS UNIQUE VANTAGE POINT AND THROUGH THEIR EVOLUTION, OUR LEGACY AND FUTURE UNITES.
