Guidelines for Students

Transcription

1 Guidelines for Students Parking: Student parking is available on the Ursuline Campus, 300 Augusta or (after 5 PM) behind the YMCA offices (corner Navarro & Augusta). Parking is on a first come basis, additional parking is available at Central Library, self pay lots or on the street nearby. Use of the Navarro Campus loading zone is limited to 10 minutes. Please move your vehicle immediately afterwards. Parking spaces for the disabled are located on both the Ursuline & Navarro Campuses. Security: A security guard is on duty during evening class hours. Please secure all vehicles, do not leave valuables in plain site and use caution when entering or leaving the premises. Students should report any suspicious activities and/or person(s) to the instructor, staff or to security personnel. Access to studios: For your safety, students have access to studio facilities only when a SSA faculty member or lab monitor is present during scheduled classes and lab periods. Evening students must leave the building no later than 9:45 PM. Use of equipment during scheduled classes and labs: Tools and studio equipment can only be used if the student is familiar with the tool or machine, understands its operation, or has the supervision of the instructor. Please report any malfunction of equipment or other maintenance problems to your instructor or to SSA staff. The instructor s rules concerning chemical and mechanical hazards must be strictly followed. Students are asked to participate in work area clean up at the end of each class and open lab time. Behavior: Inappropriate behavior such as the use of profanity or sexual innuendo, dominating an instructor s time, or dominating the use of studio facilities and materials is unacceptable. Such behavior will also be grounds for dismissal from class. Children and unregistered visitors are only permitted in the studio during class time with the advanced, expressed permission of the class instructor and/or the department chair. Conversations on cellular phones should occur outside the classroom. Food, Alcohol, Firearms & Tobacco: Eating utensils and food should always be kept separate from studio work areas. All uneaten food should be disposed of daily. Attending classes while intoxicated, and/or the use of drugs or alcohol on campus are forbidden. Firearms are forbidden inside the Southwest School of Art buildings and grounds. Smoking inside Southwest School of Art buildings or on the balconies is prohibited. Attendance, Illness & Weather: If an instructor cannot meet a class, then: 1) a class may be postponed, with a make up class scheduled later in the term, 2) another qualified teacher may substitute for the instructor. If a class must be postponed, students will be contacted with as much advanced notice as possible. A make up class will not be provided for students missing class due to personal circumstances. The decision to cancel all classes and programs due to weather will be based, but not limited to: the severity of the weather and advice of public emergency officials. If at all possible, the decision will be made by: 3:00 p.m. for evening classes and 8:00 a.m. for daytime classes. Closings will be posted on the School s website:

2 1033 Polymer Clay for Personal Ornamentation Carol Dotin McAllister Ceramics Studio Ursuline Campus Material List: Materials are usually available in the Polymer Clay section at Michael s, Hobby Lobby, Jo-Ann or other suppliers.

5 Enrolled Metals Students, Summer 2014 Here is a small list of items that are almost always required or suggested for classes and workshops in the Metals Dept., in addition to materials for projects. Closed-toed footwear (i.e. no sandals) Safety glasses, regular eye glasses do NOT qualify Work apron and shop shirt, suggested but not required Something for taking notes during demonstrations Small box for transporting project components between home and the studio. The Metals Dept. does not have storage for students. Regarding materials for classes, most of the materials students will need throughout the duration of the class will be supplied or for sale at the Metals studio. If an instructor, including visiting artists, decides that students need to show up on the first day of class with specific materials, they (the instructor) will contact you via with a list and suppliers. Therefore, it s important that you give registration an address you use often and a good phone number. For the most part though, students will buy their metal stock from the studio and should plan to spend between 5 to 30 dollars on materials depending on your choice of materials and projects. Hand tools and equipment are supplied by the studio and available for use during class and open studio sessions. Please do not use a specific tool and piece of equipment unless you have been shown the proper use by an instructor of the Metals Dept. Typically, we offer open studio time for students to work outside of class time, Tue - Thu, 1:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon and Thurs evenings, 6:00 to 9:00. However, your instructor will update you with any changes on the first day of class. The hourly rate for open studio is $3.50 an hour or $9.00 for 3 hours. Please bring cash or a personal check to pay for class materials and open studio times. Again, your instructor will go over this with you on the first day of class. Please note that while most of the instructors are open to students using smart phones for recording demonstrations or photographing teaching samples, phones are otherwise expected to be turned on vibrate at least, if not silent or off. If an individual really needs to answer a call, they should do that out in the main hallway, not in the classroom, so as to not interrupt class time. We look forward to working with you in the studio this term and feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Gary Schott Metals Department Chair gschott@swschool.org Jill Palone Metals Studio Manager, Instructor jpalone@swschool.org

Maximum of 5 images on a flash drive to intro themselves and their work. An apron or wear clothes they are comfortable getting dirty. Class times: Friday, 10:00 am - 4:30 PM Saturday, 9:00 am 4:30 PM Sunday, 10:00 am - 4:30 PM All of the materials and supplies for your workshop are included in the Materials Fee. The material fee will be payable to me during the workshop and is estimated at $75. Past participants have found it useful to bring their sketch books or a folder of ideas to discuss and cameras to document the process. I will be covering possible form development with this technique during our first session. One thing to keep in mind is that this process works best to create 'closed forms'. Example: It would be better to sculpt a sitting dog, legs and tail close to the body rather than a standing dog on point an 'open form'. The design process is an important aspect of this workshop. We'll start by creating clay maquettes...but more on that when we meet. Please bring a few examples of your work, either electronic or photographs, for an image sharing session.
