Sixteen students from this year's overall summer program/cohort participated in this optional final exhibition. The exhibition returns to the first studio project of the program: thinking in terms of place and orientation, students produced annotated drawings of the places where they would be working over the six weeks of the course and predicted the tools, skills, and resources they would need. These drawings were the basis for online “room tours” during the following week. The drawings and writings recorded the cohort’s observations in a transitional moment, as they worked together (online) in different places from across various cities, regions, and time zones. We invite you to check out the room tours and the rich details provided. Explore what the students observed and chose to depict in their drawings.

Students work with experienced instructors to build academic language skills specific to art and design disciplines, learn about academic and studio culture at OCAD U, become familiar with the analytical and iterative methods needed, and build helpful connections to start their first year.* [ Visit the online exhibition .arrow-link-long { fill: #000; } ](https://new.express.adobe.com/webpage/Wt3dE6HOQesT4) Please be advised that OCAD U hosted events may be documented through photographs and video.
