Noreen Naughton Umbrian Studio, 1994. The program fee includes three delicious Umbrian meals each day, excluding trip days. Students, residents and faculty enjoy meals together, enabling students to have close contact with their art mentors. Meals are simple and wholesome, with fresh produce from a nearby farm, and prepared with care by our local cooks. A typical lunch at the ISA includes pasta, a meat dish, two vegetables and a legume, salad, fresh bread, local wine, mineral water, fruit and coffee.
Dinner is light and satisfying, with a hot main course and plenty of vegetables.
We serve a substantial continental-style breakfast to prepare us for an energetic morning in the studio. ISA alumni who receive an invitation to the Residence Program need not submit a formal application and will be automatically accepted upon receipt of the confirmation deposit. All fees must be received one month before the session begins. Former students in good standing are automatically accepted upon receipt of the confirmation deposit, but since space is limited, should register early. A few 6-week Residencies are open during the School sessions for the same price as the School session.
