Medici Student Engagement
Special Medici Circle Initiative
Support Studying Abroad:
Studio Art Centers International (SACI),
Ghana, and various other locations
Betsy Jaszczak studied abroad at SACI in Late Summer 2013, describing the class experience as:
“This class was completely different than anything else I had taken before, and it was one in which I would not be able to take here in the US.”
Joshua Drouillared experienced SACI in Late Summer 2017, describing his trip:
"My experience with the SACI program was nothing short of the educational experience of a lifetime. During my classes we regularly visited on site locations of famous works of art and where famous artists honed their craft. We also attended museum tours where we examined masterpieces such as Michelangelo’s David. Such visits gave me perspective on the career and thought process of artists of the Renaissance period. I made strong friendships that benefited how I look at art and how I should be experiencing life. Because of these positive experiences, I am now more open to taking big risks for the sake of educational and life experience. Not only did I fall for the city of Florence and its rich history in the arts, but also the fantastic people I met along the way through the SACI program."
