Masterclasses
Excellence breeds excellence. The pursuit of artistic excellence is an essential and never-ending part of any artist's career, and IAM believes that highly respected artists who work at the top of their field have much to offer those aspiring and emerging artists who are actively seeking to improve their skills.
The Encounter 09 masterclasses offer artists the opportunity to be selected by masterclass teachers for individual advice, critique, and perspective on their career and work. All conference registrants may attend any masterclass to observe and learn.
