Study Abroad in Oaxaca
Expand your creativity this spring in Oaxaca, Mexico! Join dean Patrick Palmer for this mixed-media course that invites students to explore painting, drawing, and collage within the studio compound of renowned Oaxacan artist Rolando Rojas. Working with Indigenous models, tropical still-life arrangements, and on-site sketching at the ancient Monte Albán pyramids, participants immerse themselves in Oaxaca’s vibrant artistic and cultural landscape.
Beyond the studio, the program offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the city’s celebrated culinary traditions through visits to some of Oaxaca’s most acclaimed restaurants. Home to Mexico’s largest Indigenous population, Oaxaca is widely recognized as the country’s food capital and a thriving center for contemporary and traditional arts.
