National Art Honor Society Leadership Day
sponsored by the
Colorado Art Education Association.
• Our mission is to connect Colorado’s high school art students with Colorado’s college and university art programs as they prepare for careers in creative industries.
• Students will participate in workshops and art making sessions that discuss admissions and portfolio development specific to area institutions such as Metro State University, University of Northern Colorado, and Colorado State University. Art making sessions will allow students to converse personally with representatives from these institutions.
• Teachers register their students for this event.
• Cost is $10.00 per student. Costs cover lunch, swag, facilities fees, event operations, and future student scholarships.
Block sessions are organized for students to connect with Colorado's colleges and universities. Students will choose one college for the morning block, and one college for the afternoon block. Students do not need to pre-select their block choices.
Block 1 9:35 AM - 11:45 AM
Block 2 12:50 PM - 3:00 PM

These sessions will be scheduled for 30 minutes and students the opportunity to learn important information about what universities look for in the preparation of an art portfolio.
