In Spring 2026, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Florence, Italy, at the Santa Reparata International School of Art. The experience allowed me to take courses unique to the school, immerse myself in the culture of Florence, and expand my view not only of art, but of the world.

Courses I took at SRISA included Renaissance Drawing & Painting Techniques, The Florentine Sketchbook: Exploring Florence Through Art, Discovering Florence Through Photography, Creative Jewelry: Wearable Art, and Neuroaesthetics: Creativity & the Brain. Syllabi often included trips to places such as the Ufizzi Gallery, the Lorenzo Villoresi Perfumery Museum, or Florence’s Museum of Natural History which enhanced the learning experience by connecting class content to the city around me.

The school schedule also allowed me time to explore other parts of Italy and enjoy the wonderful authentic Italian gelato, pasta, and the best citrus fruits I’ve ever had! Of course the professors, classmates, and newfound friends made the experience ten times more precious. To anyone considering studying abroad, particularly at SRISA, I highly recommend it.

i’m genuinely tearing up writing this. i never thought i was going to pursue an art major in college. i came to rowan thinking i would major in marketing & do art as a hobby. after one step in westby & taking introduction to sculpture all of that changed. i switched to a BA in art & a minor in marketing, which was the best decision i could have made. i owe everything to rowan, westby, my professors, & the friends i made there. i’m heartbroken that it’s coming to an end but looking forward to what will come next. the LOVE that i have found for ceramics & printmaking is unimaginable. i never thought i would find mediums that bring me so much joy & showcases my style in such an amazing way. this is truly a bittersweet moment but im so grateful for everything that rowan & wesby brought me. if you’re stuck between pursuing an art degree & going to rowan let this be your sign to do it. im so thankful to have been a student there. definitely not sobbing by the end of this , goodbye rowan
