## About

Teens hoping to get into art college can get professional tips on what their portfolio needs to show their best work to colleges. The session is led by Project Open Door, an organization affiliated with the Rhode Island School of Design's Teaching + Learning in Art + Design department that offers free art education to Rhode Island youth. Presenters know portfolio expectations well, though they do not speak for any college's admissions office.
