Emma Fabert of Bainbridge Island is among the Knox College students who explored art history and studio work while participating in the Knox in New York program in December 2018.

Touring galleries and museums, working intensively at New York Studio School, and networking with Knox alumni were just some of the things that Fabert and seven other art students did during winter break through the Knox in New York program.

Knox in New York is a short-term immersive experience, taught by Associate Professor of Art Tony Gant and Professor of Art Lynette Lombard, that combines an art history course and studio work with a two-week travel component to New York City.

After the trip, students come back to Knox to create artwork inspired by their experiences.

Founded in 1837, Knox College is a national liberal arts college in Galesburg, Illinois.
