Studio and programming space in the South of France | |
In keeping with the spirit in which the VCCA received the Moulin à Nef, and to further cultural exchange and arts programming, we welcome like-minded arts and cultural organizations to use our arts center for their own programming. Past participants have included Yale University, the Southwest School of Art and Craft and The Visual Arts Center of Richmond. These organizations offered their own arts programming hosted by the VCCA at our studio center in Auvillar. These programs were open to the public. In 2009, the VCCA welcomed Yale University's YSS@ISS program to the Moulin à Nef. Yale Summer Session at the Institute for Studio Studies is a private course open to Yale and non-Yale students in both the fine arts and liberal arts. Students are challenged with rigorous individual research investigations in painting and drawing in order to develop an understanding of studio strategies for initiating, clarifying, articulating, and imaging visual ideas. Because of the program’s unusually intensive nature, considerable student commitment and a strong work ethic are required.
