art courses

At college can 3 of my courses be art related?

I want to choose graphic design, fine art, Creative And Media Arts and ICT. i would like to know if it’s a good idea and/or if am i allowed to do so. thanks
btw i live in England if that helps

They sound very good A levels if you want to do something art related, I see no reason why you should not be allowed to do them. If you want to go to uni you need a portfolio anyway so these subjects will give you all the coursework. The only problem though could be a practical one if the timetables overlap.

Some Tips for Fresh Food!

Cooks who are new to the kitchen are usually far more concerned with making sure their recipes turn out right than with making sure they follow all food safety rules. In their desperation to make sure their cake, sauce or roast turns out right, they can create a bacterial danger zone that will leave their diners fondly remembering a time when their intestines didn’t feel like they were tied in knots. A few food safety tips can help prevent such disasters.

Wash, wash, wash: Make sure that all tools and food contact surfaces are washed thoroughly with soap and water after each and every step in the cooking process. Keep a spray bottle filled with a mix of 1 tablespoon of bleach per gallon of water to sterilize countertops.

Watch your temperatures: Make sure that cold food is kept cold and hot food is kept hot. When you have a large quantity of hot food, such as a pot of soup, for more details visit to www.fair-recipes.com that you want to store, put the pot in a sink half-filled with ice and water. Stir the soup frequently until the temperature has dropped below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, then package and store.

Careful with chemicals: Never, EVER keep cleaning chemicals on or near food contact surfaces. Bumping a spray bottle the wrong way can cause it to discharge small amounts of cleaning solution, perhaps in the direction of your food.

Watch out for wood: Wood cutting boards are attractive, and they’re the best for your knife blades. However, cutting meat on a traditional wood cutting board makes tiny crevices into which bacteria can nestle, for more details visit to www.chef-123.com becoming difficult or impossible to remove during washing. Save the wooden board for your salad greens.

Most cities’ health departments offer courses in food safety for home cooks. They are usually one or two days, at most, and can be of tremendous worth. If your city doesn’t offer one, check online. There are abundant resources from the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

When it comes to cooking gourmet food the two rules mentioned above are the only hard and fast rules. Everything else is purely a matter of adventure and taste. Now this doesn’t mean that any and everyone can become a gourmet cook simply by going out and purchasing the finest and freshest of ingredients and throwing them into a pot. There is some degree of art involved when it comes to gourmet cooking and a large degree of skill that is necessary in order to achieve these culinary masterpieces.

You should also understand and be prepared to discover that fresh ingredients are not always available so there are times when compromises must be made when cooking gourmet meals. For this reason you capitalize on what is in season and plan your meals accordingly whenever possible. One important quality when it comes to cooking gourmet food is the layering of flavors. You should be able to taste the meat or seafood as well as the vegetables, herbs, and spices that comprise you’re skillfully prepared meal.

what are some of the best art colleges that offer hip-hop and breakdance courses?

I wanna go into dance like, REALLY REALLY bad, i also want to do DJing! Im having such a difficult time choosing which career i wanna partake in, im in high school and intrested in the arts! HELP me with finding out about sum colleges that offer hip-hop/breakdance courses!

i don’t think any colleges offer breakdance courses, because it is not a dance that requires any technique, so it would not be taught at a studio or in college. i don’t know of a college that teaches hip hop either, but you can learn at a ny dance studio, if you want to further your dance career though, you should take other forms of dance such as ballet and jazz, which will greatly advance your technique and dance vocabulary.


Is it a bad sign when some art colleges don’t require you to take general education courses?

I was checking out the Graphic Design program for Academy of Art University. Looking at the curriculum, it bugs me that they don’t make you take general courses, like science, communication, humanites, and I didn’t even notice a math requirement. It seems like a decent college to learn art from, but not for an overall good education.

What one of the other posters said about AAU is correct, in part. They do require gen ed classes at AAU. The difference is between a BA in art and a BFA in art. A BA will have more liberal arts requirements. A BFA is a professional degree, and is more focused on art classes.

But then he said this, and I must strongly disagree:

"FYI: Academy of Art University is regionally accredited by the Western Association (WASC) and is among the top schools of art and design (in some areas they are the top) in the United States."

He may have AAU confused with some of the other excellent art schools in California.

AAU is absolutely, positively NOT one of the top art schools in the US. They actually rank toward the bottom in terms of reputation as an overall art school. However, some of their majors are considered good. But overall, they have a pretty poor reputation in art, both in the business/art world, and in the academic world.

While they are regionally accredited, which is a very strong point in their favor, they are also open admissions, meaning that anyone who applies gets in (and this certainly influences their rep.) They do graduate decent grads in some fields, though. They way they do this is via attrition – they weed out the kids who can’t take it as the classwork goes on. So AAU can actually be a great opportunity for someone who wants to study art and who doesn’t have a portfolio ready. But if you do have a portfolio, you can probably get into some place with a stronger reputation. And if you don’t have a portfolio, you can try the Savannah College of Art and Design, which does admit some undergrad students without a portfolio, but is considered a much stronger school than AAU.

I’m a junior who’s looking for a summer camp having art courses that don’t cost a thousand bucks,are there any?

schools of that description around Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire?

I don’t live in New Hampshire, but you should check out community colleges, junior colleges, or continuing education centers around your place. Chances are you have one and they have cheap classes.

Where I live, we have a really good community college that is actually an accredited college and each course is only 150 bucks. And, on top of that, our art and music program is actually really respected.

You never know until you check it out
