“For me, one great experience was from a single class that was offered. I took introduction to art therapy as an elective. An art therapist taught the course, so she was well-educated in the field. I found this course to be very interesting, and from there I was able to do an internship through the school. My internship was at the Adrian Training School under the supervision of the art therapist. Here I worked with troubled adolescent girls, and I was able to participate and least a number of therapeutic art activities.”

“The staff in the Art and Design department were inspiring and energizing to work with. I always felt supported and encouraged while at Adrian. Professors at Adrian not only taught course material each semester, but were example of ho hard work and having a passion for something can make anything possible.”
