The Savannah College of Art and Design has a second location in Atlanta, which is where I went today to visit their print studios and learn about their graduate program. Located on the 5th floor, the studios are flooded with beautiful lighting and huge work spaces. I got a tour from chair of the department Robert Brown, and silkscreen and book arts professor, Cynthia Lollis. They showed me all of the facilities SCAD Atlanta is equipped with: silkscreen, lithography, letterpress, relief, and intaglio. Something really cool I learned about while there is that SCAD teaches and offers the materials for photogravure. Photogravure is a rare technique that most print shops do not have the equipment and facilities to accommodate such process, so I was excited to come across it today in Atlanta. Robert specializes in photogravure and is an absolute pro! They offer a study abroad program in Lacoste, France and Hong Kong, China as well as opportunities to work with established artists, galleries, and art organizations through internships and classes while enrolled. SCAD has a great print program and a strong print community within the school that I'm glad I got to learn about and see first hand.
