Access: New Studio Opportunities for Students

Chicago Industrial Arts and Design Center is pleased to announce that students can now work in department open studios.

All students now have more access to the space and tools they need to complete creative projects throughout the week, not just during individual class time. After safety training in the first class, students are encouraged to take advantage of the three hour time slots in the department of their class(es). Get more out of your education at CIADC by working in the department shops all Fall.
