We are currently looking for students and parents to SPREAD THE OXBOW WORD! Please make a post on Instagram or Facebook and tag The Oxbow School! If you are an alumni, talk to your art teacher or school about sharing your Oxbow experience with your classmates. You are our most valuable ambassadors and the messengers of the Oxbow experience. Help other students and parents to find their way to Oxbow!

If you are interested in being a local ambassador for Oxbow, PLEASE LET US KNOW! We are always looking for alumni and alumni parents to help us with events, present at schools and arts organizations, and to introduce us to new prospective students.

We hope to see some of you this Fall and Spring as we travel the country seeking the next generation of Oxbow students.

I want to thank you all for being so supportive and wonderful, thank you for running this incredible program. And half of my acceptance to RISD is because of Oxbow. (Especially thanks to Chris who wrote my letter of rec, to Jennifer who revised my essays, to the admissions team who helped me with my portfolio.

Oxbow opened me up to what was out there in the world to go out and grab, and gave me so much that I take with me everywhere I go, with everything I do.

Oxbow School is one of the preeminent choices for creative high school students interested in the arts. Their project-based, integrated approach to learning mirrors the approach of many top art schools. At California College of the Arts, we are thrilled to see applicants who have attended Oxbow because we know they are well prepared for the rigors of college level work. I wish there had been an Oxbow School when I was a high school student!
