To expand the horizon, we will look at both Western and Non-Western Art and artistic styles of Asia: Buddhist and Indian art, Arts of Africa and Native American
art and how they impacted the generations and our own selves. It will give participants a way to think about the world differently, to make connections, and to contemplate our place and role in it.

The course design will have the flexibility to incorporate the participant’s professional background. Paintings, sculpture and creative pursuits will be studied and incorporated as individual’s work in relationship to their social and professional backgrounds. The cultural influence upon contemporary art will be covered as well. Focus would be on how to incorporate our latent talent into our daily personal and
professional life.
