What kind of person creates their now?

Just like you, the individuals featured on the next few pages have made the decision to take up a creative call to arms.

Art + Design

“This is a low-risk way to experience a challenge, get past it and grow from it. These classes teach you how to recover from mistakes – which is helpful in any line of work.”

A blank canvas. A block of clay. Uncarved wood.

They all depend on the creative impulse. And you don’t have to be an old master to have it.

All you need is that initial spark. We’ll help you make it an artistic explosion.

Cause at UArts, it doesn’t matter whether the studio was once your second home or you’re crossing its threshold for the first time. You’ll belong here.

We have oils, tile, acrylics, sand casting, high-speed lenses, charcoal, forging, typography and so much more to explore.

Whatever your medium, whatever your approach, it’s time to let out your creative.

Web Design + Development

“If you’re looking to expand your career, this program will give you the confidence to put your portfolio together and go out to face the world.”

Design. Build. Maintain.

It’s as much a mantra as part of the certificate curriculum.

In this program, you opt in full force. It’s all about diving down deep into the practicalities, technicalities and sensibilities of web design and development.

Usability may be the name of the game, but you’ll also learn how to get everything dressed to the nines.

In the end, fully functional is how they’ll describe your websites and your career readiness.

Spring 2012 Course Brochure | 7

Certificate Digital Photography

“They realize what your skills are and help you capitalize on them. It’s not a coincidence that in the middle of the program I booked my first job.”

Exposure.

You’ll get it at UArts.

Camera “raw,” aperture, color management, studio shoots, retouching, commercial and fine art photography – here, you’ll see it all and more.

Because in this business, image really is everything; you’ll learn more than just techniques to shoot and manipulate images using digital technology. We’ll give you what it takes to capture the essence of whatever’s in your lens.

What are you waiting for? Take your shot.

Tap Repertory

This class infuses interval training with an easyto-follow series of Latin-style dance steps and high-energy music. Movements are some of the major styles of Latin dance, including calypso, cumbia, cha cha, hip hop, samba, reggae, meringue and salsa.

Rhythmic, Latin-inspired routines are perfect for anyone who loves to dance and seeks a great cardio workout.

In this unique tap class you’ll not only expand your tap technique, but also get the opportunity to perform what you learn. Begin choreography lessons on the first night of class and perform toward the end of the semester (exact date TBA).

In the event of non-payment or partial payment by the third-party agency, the student will be charged for the unpaid amount. Third parties are invoiced after the class is confirmed to run. Payments must be made within 30 days of billing. If payment is not received within 30 days, the agency and the student will be notified, and the student will be billed for the unpaid amount as authorized on the Tuition Repayment Agreement. Any charges that are not paid by the sponsor are billed directly to the student.
