Be a part of The Orto Center's annual series of international distance learning master class exchanges with peer institutions and master teachers around the world.
Since 1996, MSM Distance Learning has showcased collaborative HD videoconference master classes, programs, and coachings featuring distinguished MSM students, faculty members, and their artistic counterparts from around the world.
Students are invited to participate or attend to watch any upcoming master class in person. No need to sign up, but seating is limited and is given on a first-come-first-serve basis. Unless otherwise noted, all events will be held in the Orto Center’s primary distance learning venue, Myers Recital Hall.
Recordings of these master classes are made available to current MSM community members on MSM Mediaspace (MSM login required).
