Morning classes are from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm. Lunch is served from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm in the AIB student cafe. Afternoon classes are from 2:00 pm to 5:30 pm. While living on campus, weekend and evening activities are designed to highlight the historic and cultural significance of Boston through visits to galleries, museums, and artist studios. Below is a partial list of activities from which the weekend schedule is determined. Educational activities (museums, artists talks, studio visits) are not optional since they contribute to the 6 college credits that the program awards. Many non-educational activities are optional with alternative activities offered. The cost for the program is $3,950 and includes application fee, tuition, art supplies, room, meals, activities, and transportation to and from classes and events.
