Month at Cobalt

Overview

A Month at Cobalt is the “Slice of Life at Cobalt” program, which is available any time the school is in session during the regular (September to May) academic year. Participants come to spend a month joining in whatever is going on during that time. You spend time in the studio, live and eat at the house with the other students and come to know what it’s like to be here.

Curriculum

The Studio is open and participants meet 7-8 hours a day, 5 days a week. The experience is an immersion into the curriculum and activities of a bustling training and production environment. MAC participants eat and sleep at the Cobalt House with the students and guest instructors.

Although the price of this program does not include Specialty Pro-Seminars (SPS), which may occur during a MAC program, a SPS can be incorporated into your stay.  If the fee for the Pro-Seminar is higher than the cost of the MAC, the additional a cost will be added to your total fee,  pro-rated based on the cost of the seminar.

Due to the demands of our commission project scheduling we cannot guarantee that a specific topic will be taught at a specific time. However, during your conversation with Rachel you will together determine the best 4-week interval time for you to get maximum benefit. This program has received great feedback from its many happy participants.
