The Split Rock Arts Program is the University of Minnesota's series of summer workshops and seasonal retreats in creative writing, visual art, and design. Held on the Twin Cities campus and at the University's Cloquet Forestry Center in northern Minnesota, the 27-year-old program is a popular destination for those who wish to study with outstanding artists and writers from throughout the world. The 2010 program is host to more than 30 workshops and retreats that serve artists of all interests, backgrounds, and skill levels. All workshops allow for significant one-to-one contact between participant and instructor.

Three-day seasonal retreats are offered in March, April, and October; summer workshops and retreats begin every Sunday in June and July. No prerequisites. Graduate/undergraduate credit, scholarships, and accommodations available. Scholarship deadline for summer workshops and retreats is April 19, 2010. Registration is ongoing.
