Eric Wong Projects Art Educational Advising and Projects in the arts by Eric Wong.

Creating new opportunities for art students, educators, counselors, schools, art education advocates, artists, and collectors. The rising costs of college tuition, insufficient state and government funding, and overall access to higher education in the time of Covid-19, presents a dire need for this kind of specialized support. Art is a marginalized field that is too often misunderstood in schools

, universities, and in the workforce. The decision to pursue art as a serious discipline can seemingly be unrealistic and even inaccessible, especially to low-income students. Many students don't have access to college preparatory training, specifically in the visual arts. Most high schools and junior college's aren't at all equipped to advise students majoring in art. Academic advisors and counselors are usually not well informed on the options and requirements for admission into an art school. Even the universities and private art schools often neglect practical guidance on how to succeed as an artist. Who The Program Serves:
• Lower income students and families
• High school students
• Transfer students
• Prospective BFA students
• Prospective MFA students
• High School Counselors
• Art Educators
• Department Heads and Administrators

Support:
• College Advising for students of the arts
• Portfolio Preparation
• Academic Representation
• Scholarship & Funding Support
• Internship Opportunities
• Alternative Workshops and Critique
• Resources and tools to succeed as artists

“Universities now emphasize administrative order over intellectual endeavors and it is students who ultimately bear the cost of this transformation, even if they are the last to see it,” Topal says.
