In conjunction with the Glasgow School
of Art, the Crafts Department of Tyler
offers a studio program in Scotland. The
program consists of four weeks of travel
and intensive studio workshops in a variety
of media, and explores the art, culture,
and geographic beauty of Great Britain.
After a one-week introduction to London,
with side trips to Stonehenge and various
museums and galleries, students travel
to Glasgow to live and work in the 19th
century castle called Hospitalfield House,
now a hostel and a museum, which is situated
in the small east coast fishing village
of Arbroath. The final week of the workshop
take you to Glasgow to work in the studios
of the famous art school building designed
by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. While working
at the Glasgow School of Art you study
with Tyler faculty as well as with resident
artists. Further information and applications
are available at Tyler from the Coordinator
of the Summer Art Workshop in Scotland.
