The neon studio is well equipped
and enables 3 students to bend glass simultaneously.
All equipment is consistent with industry standards.
The curriculum focuses on sculptural, architectural
and experimental applications; however, interest
in the fundamentals of lettering and signage
is accommodated.
Contiguous with the neon studio is the Museum
of Luminous Phenomenon, which features work
that relates to or emits light. Exhibitions
include the work of students, faculty and outside
artists.
