April Update

This month we want to showcase our Rising Star Izabella!

Every year, we are blessed to be involved in the process of helping our students apply to their dream colleges. The portfolio-making journey is challenging and at times, stressful. That is why we strive to aid our students in any way they need such as one-on-one idea consultations, figure drawing classes, and more. This year, we are sending off one of our seniors, Izabella F., majoring in Entertainment Design, to one of the top art colleges in the nation, Laguna College of Art and Design.

Izabella joined us when she was in middle school, and it has been rewarding seeing her grow into a wonderful artist. Throughout the years, she followed our guidance graciously and thrived by placing in a variety of competitions and being recognized nationally for her talents. She always had an innate talent for storytelling and we helped her gain the necessary skills to create a beautiful portfolio. Her efforts paid off when her dream schools accepted her and gave her these amazing scholarships:

Rhode Island School of Design: $144,800

Savannah College of Art and Design: $64,000

Ringling College of Art and Design: Creative Excellence Scholarship $56,000

Laguna College of Art and Design: $44,000

Pratt Institute Manhattan Center

We send our seniors off with warm hearts and can’t wait to see what wonderful things they will accomplish. If your child also dreams of going to an art college or university with a side portfolio, the Academy of Ivy Art teachers are prepared to help.
