A Unique opportunity: why you should take part
By enrolling in the Study Abroad semester at the Siena Art Institute, on top of a high quality academic experience abroad, you will get the chance to participate in The Peace Room Project.
By popular demand, the Siena Art Institute has decided to run a Second Edition of The Peace Room Project. For the first edition, the project received almost 100 applications out of which only a handful of students were selected. The Project is backed by Toscanaincontemporanea, a regional nation-wide recognized contemporary art programme, aimed at fostering the development of a new generation of Artists and Art professionals (such as curators, museologists and art researchers) in Tuscany, Italy.
The Peace room project has been supported by various international Italian Culture Institutes such as Dakar, Guatemala, Lebanon, San Francisco, Tokio and more.
Becoming a student will give you the unique opportunity to collaborate with young Artists from diverse contexts, work alongside professional Artists who are active in the international contemporary Art scene, actively engage with the local community and further explore and improve your artistic research.
