Continuing Education . Pre-College Fashion-Jewelry-Accessories 

Pre-College: Fashion-Jewelry-Accessories Course

Fashion has the power to transform the wearer, to transcend the mundane, to offer new and novel experiences, to empower and provoke, and to reflect and record the times in which we live. As artists and designers we live in a culture of unprecedented access to information, new ideas, materials, and technologies.

Fashion-Jewelry-Accessories is designed to focus on the changing landscape of art and design. We will examine history, concepts and design practices, materials, and technologies as they relate to fashion, jewelry, and accessories. Varied materials and techniques from self-directed exploration to advanced studio technologies will supplement the course to challenge conceptual growth, facilitate design, and present new means of fabrication. Projects will be presented to challenge you to conduct research and explore your own direction. Discussions and presentations will recognize the direction of the group. The course includes group discussions, visiting artists/designers, a field trip, presentations, demonstrations to support individual directions, and a fashion show.

CIA Jewelry graduates have great careers including designing for J Crew, Alexis Bittar, Coach, Vera Wang, Isaac Mizrahi, and more.
