Today is move in day at Steinman Lofts, home to many of the members of PCA&D’s Foundation Year students. Today, with the help of family and friends they are focusing on unpacking their belongings and exploring Lancaster City. Next week is Orientation, designed to help them get the most from their art college adventure! Classes begin on September 5.
We asked what the members of the Class of 2021 are most excited about as they start on this chapter of their life in art. Here are some of their responses:
