“I had the privilege of attending Blossom in 2023 and was greatly impacted by my short time spent at KSU. This studio intensive was an incubator of creative energy and was just what I needed to get out of a creative rut. The program brought together people in so many different phases of professional life - teachers, graduate and undergraduate students, emerging and seasoned artists. Through conversation, studio visits and lectures, and most of all - dedicated studio time - I was able to give my work the time and space it needed to move towards the next level of my creative practice.”

“This program gave me the chance to be free, to experiment and not be afraid of trying new things or failing. Spending two weeks intensively working gives you that chance just to explore, especially when you’re surrounded by an atmosphere of creativity.”

“I loved meeting the visiting artists and seeing their techniques which gave me new ideas for my own work. Resident faculty was supportive but also challenged me to think broader and consider the meaning behind my work, helping me to identify my artistic values.”

“All supplies were provided which was very nice. My instructor was amazing and was there to help anytime when needed during class.”
