Overview
TRCC Visual Art Alumni Mary Pollard

“Having three kids and being a non-traditional student, I looked at becoming a student at Three Rivers as a challenge. But TRCC helped me gain the confidence and skills I needed.

I graduated in May 2016 with two Associate Degrees, one in Visual Fine Arts and one in Graphic Design and went on to transfer to the Hartford Art School at the University of Hartford for my bachelor’s degree.”
