Art under the sun

Summer camps aren’t just for kids. Even without summer vacations, you can still make time to upskill or find a new hobby amidst all that adulting. The first on our curated list is the Art Portfolio Summer Intensive Program by Artiste 360 art school. While the main aim of the programme is to help students of art create their portfolios and get into the world’s top art and design schools, founder and mentor Tarang Jain tells us that it’s also a good opportunity for people to learn more about artistic practices across art forms. “You get exposed to different mediums and learn how to put your ideas together,” she shares. This is an eight-week course where participants can select topics to learn. This includes artistic explorations, ethics and credits, developing critical consciousness, transforming ideas into artworks, completing artworks during the course, mapping your work and more. They also have a packed schedule of workshops from May 2 onwards including product design, watercolour painting, mixed media, printmaking, zine, digital storytelling, conceptual art and more.


On June 5 to June 30 (July batches available)

Head to summer school

St Andrew’s Centre for Philosophy and Performing Arts (SAPP) gets our vote for having an eclectic curation of workshops. The Awesummer 2023 summer school brings back some favourite workshops along with much more including new additions — from personality development and a voice workshop to walking the ramp and learning how to read Urdu poetry and prose. Flip through the schedule if you’re looking to dive into classical Sanskrit plays like ancient Indian poet Bhasa’s Swapna Vasavadatta and Urubhanga or Kalidasa’s Abhijnana Shakuntalam; approach and read your favourite films philosophically; write your own plays, and learn how to build a corporate image at the workshops. Each course is a few days’ long or takes place across weekends. Co-founder Dr Omkar Bhatkar shares, “This is the third edition of the summer school, and we tried to experiment with the courses based on what people are interested in learning.”
