About the Illustration Practice MFA
The MFA in Illustration Practice was founded in 2010 as an environment for students to examine their relationship to their work, to intelligently break existing perceptions and rules, to take advantage of technologies, to consider social needs and artistic perspectives, and to be a pioneer in the future of illustration. Students gain the courage needed to follow ideals true to their native creativity, and to develop an awareness of culture while not becoming overly influenced by it. Currently, the first year of the program focuses on experimentation through material workshops, entrepreneurial
skills, a community-based project, a capstone project, and research and writing on historic and contemporary illustration. The second year is devoted to a thesis project and professional development, supported by faculty mentorship as well as feedback from noted visiting illustrators and critics. This work takes place within the context of state of the art facilities, including individual student workspaces, group meeting & making spaces, specialized equipment, and faculty offices. The Illustration Practice MFA, recognized internationally for its distinctive focus on experimentation and innovation, will continue to, under the guidance of the next graduate director, cultivate independent thinking, hybrid skills and shared learning; foster practitioners, educators and scholars empowered to promote innovative pedagogy and research in art and design; advance MICA's long commitment to art and design education and to illustration practice; and support collaborative partnerships and projects that engage Baltimore, the State of Maryland, the nation, and beyond.
