The New York Studio School welcomes artists from around the world for ten-day intensive Marathons in drawing, painting, and sculpture. The strategies and concepts explored, in-person or virtually, form new models for art-making that energize an artist’s studio practice for years to come.

Marathons utilize drawing, painting, and sculpture as direct methodologies for understanding one’s experience in the world. Artists will investigate a diverse range of process-driven approaches, discover new visual vocabularies, and expand their ability to describe form and space, guided by extensive group and individual critiques. The innovation and depth of these ten-day programs expand participants’ fluency with materials and lead to new ways of thinking and creating which continue far beyond each program’s conclusion. Open to artists of all levels, courses are taught daily in-person or virtually in real-time from 9am–6pm ET.

Generous partial scholarships available.

About NYSS The New York Studio School was founded in 1964 as an intensive studio arts program with an emphasis on perception; artists learning from artists; and drawing as the most direct means of describing one’s ideas or experiences. To learn more about our full-time programs: MFA, Certificate and Virtual Certificate; or additional part-time options: Evening & Weekend Classes, Drawing and Sculpture Master Classes; please email info@nyss.org with any questions or to schedule a virtual or in-person visit.

Full-time program highlight The Virtual Certificate Program is an extraordinary opportunity for artists to pursue their full-time education with NYSS from their respective home studios. Artists from around the world are invited to participate in a structured real-time curriculum, led by the School’s dedicated faculty, with many options to study in-person throughout the duration of the three-year program. Virtual Certificate students can attend NYC-based Marathons each semester or choose in-person study for entire semesters at a time, cultivating a self-directed course of study that best supports one’s individual goals and life structure.
