SCAD-Lacoste is a study abroad campus in a beautifully preserved medieval village in the South of France. It offers a unique opportunity for students and faculty to spend an entire term immersed in the culture of the region.
While situated in a centuries-old setting, Lacoste offers a variety of modern amenities, including computer labs with Internet and e-mail access, well-equipped teaching studios for painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking, photography and digital imaging, as well as dining and residence halls, a library, exhibition space and administrative offices.
Activities outside the classroom include faculty lectures, workshops and exhibitions, as well as visits to artist ateliers, museums and historic sites in the area. At the end of each quarter, students have an opportunity to exhibit their work at a local group exhibition.
In the mild spring, summer and autumn seasons, opportunities abound for outdoor recreational activities such as hiking, biking and swimming. The ease of village life at Lacoste is balanced by frequent excursions to the nearby cultural centers of Avignon, Aix, Arles and Marseilles, as well as trips to larger cities such as Paris.
