Previous Page Projects

The readings shown are for all sections, with the exception of the last column which is required solely of Art 268 students. Readings should be done during the week assigned.

Note: the topics under the first two columns, Color and Design, can be viewed on Web browsers in Arts Center Room 160; these are installed only in the classroom, and cannot be accessed via the Internet.
