Ox-Bow

Founded in 1910, Ox-Bow School of Art and Artists’ Residency is a separately incorporated nonprofit organization offering year-round programs that cater to degree-seeking students, professional artists, and those new to the field. Students from schools across the country visit Ox-Bow to study and make art on the school’s 115-acre campus in Saugatuck, Michigan, 150 miles northeast of Chicago.

Ox-Bow offers courses for credit and non-credit that can be used toward School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) degree requirements, including SAIC’s off-campus study requirement. Work scholarships and financial aid opportunities are available through Ox-Bow.
