The program is designed to support and help high school and college transfer students excel in developing their portfolios for college admissions. Students will be encouraged to portray and reflect their inner voices and passions creatively through their body of works. Portfolios developed by students from Shineh Art Studio have historically been well received by colleges/universities throughout the country.
