“IDSVA has shaped my awareness and thinking in a way I could not have imagined. Before IDSVA, I thought of art as the exclusive domain of practicing artists, or the stuff in galleries and museums; now I think of an all-encompassing aesthetic life that continues to inform me as a human being.”

IDSVA has two seats open for September 2019 enrollment. Please contact Molly Davis at 207-771-8887 or mdavis@idsva.edu for more information.
