Tougaloo Art Colony
July 11th - 16th, 2010
The Tougaloo Art Colony is a retreat for nationally acclaimed artists, emerging artists, art educators, art students, and interested adult learners to engage in dialogue and to create works that help extend the multicultural dimensions of America’s visual arts culture. The Tougaloo Art Colony consists of seven days of studios led by guest artist instructors from a variety of media, geographic regions, and backgrounds. The daily studio workshops and the shared evening sessions provide a forum for artists to gain insight from instructors, to explain and talk about their own work, the work of other artists and to share and compare techniques and art theories. The close associations formed through a week of intensive study provide a network for ongoing relationships between artists and celebration through the arts, the common denominator of the human spirit and its relationship to our contemporary world.
