SCG Foundation Preps Up Students to University Entrance With “Art Camp by SCG Foundation”

SCG Foundation Preps Up Students to University Entrance
With “Art Camp by SCG Foundation””


For young and aspiring artists, SCG Foundation’s “Art Camp by SCG Foundation’ is the place for you to learn all about techniques and skills you will need when making an entrance into university’s art school. The Art Camp, created by SCG Foundation, is also to formulate stronger art education by providing art teachers the opportunity to hone their art teaching skills and new art-making techniques.

Ms. Suvimol Chivaluk, Director and Manager of SCG Foundation, says that “Thailand has so many aspiring young artists who wish to pursue their dreams studying arts in university. However, many of these students lack serious supports, many of them living in the faraway provinces and never got a good chance to hone their skills and see the world and information like those in the cities. Also, art schools are always expensive and that curb the opportunities for the students in those areas, reducing their chance even further when it comes to practicing their art skills so they can prepare themselves properly for the big university entrance exam.””

“This is the reason that SCG Foundation decided to team up with Thailand’s leading art teachers in organizing the “Art Camp by SCG Foundation” where all kinds of necessary art skills – from basics to art compositions and from drawing to creative arts – will be transferred to high school students who wish to make a university entrance into art faculties. However, the art camp is not solely about the students. SCG Foundation also sees this camp a good opportunity for the art teachers to hone their own teaching skills which are in fact the very important factor contributing to the success of the students. The camp will include seminars on art teaching skills and techniques along with new art education for teachers so they can enrich their own classroom with the new knowledge. We hope to create among the teachers a new level of pride that they can eventually help their own students materializing their dreams.”

The Art Camp by SCG Foundation is open for students in Matthayom Suksa 5-6 who would like to practice their art skills for the university entrance exams. To enroll into the camp, the students need to submit 2 pieces of their own art works including 1. A drawing of still models, fruits or hands on an A3 paper and 2. An art composition geometric drawing in colours on an A3 paper along with an educational certificate to SCG Foundation, 1 Building 30 C, Siam Cement Road, Bang Sue, Bangkok 10140 from now until 7th July 2013 (postal dates are finals). Students are advised to download the application form and study further information at www.scgfoundation.org or call T: 02-586-4177.

Students and teacher from each school will be selected into the Art Camp by SCG Foundation. They will participate in the free-of-charge art forum and seminar with the country’s leading art teachers led by Kru Sangkom Thongmee during 26-28 July 2013 at the Fountain Tree Resort, Pak Chong, Nakorn Ratchasima.

By giving the students a good opportunity to hone their art skills on the way pursuing their dreams is like crafting out the best of a diamond. This is the pride and joy of SCG Foundation because we have always valued the quality of human resources. Throughout the past 8 years that we have organized the Art Camp, we had over 850 art students and teachers joining us and 80% of those participants actually got into university’s art faculties as they had intended,” adds Ms. Suvimol.

Art Camp by SCG Foundation is another program perpetuated by SCG Foundation since 2004. The purpose of the program is to support the wishes of aspiring art students who seriously want to pursue their dreams studying in art schools of university. This is an opportunity for the Foundation to provide knowledge for better future of Thailand’s young generation. By giving them good opportunity to study, SCG is proud to be a part of their successful dreams in which they grow up to be good and wise as an important force behind our country’s future.
