Hello everyone,

I'm an aspiring artist who plans on continuing his art for... well, for a long time but I have other interests in international affairs, languages and writing. My question to you is this, do most schools offer non art majors studio space or am I going to have to look somewhere in the community for a place to continue my artistic studies?

I'm going to apply to Georgetown, St. John's College MD, George Washington University, Claremont McKenna College and Oxford University in England. Do you know if these colleges open up their studios to non-art majors?

Also, on a slightly unrelated topic, is it common for schools to have martial arts clubs? And does anyone know of a good Kung Fu school/club in Washington DC (as that's probably where I'll end up)? Thanks for the responses in advance.

St. John's College has studios (they are small though, as the student body is only around 450). They seem pretty lenient with letting anyone in, and students can take one fine arts class per semester for free.

Wow, that's cool. Didn't know that about them. Anyone else know about the other schools or martial arts clubs? Thanks!
