DAAP Initiatives
Serving the Community by creating a better design environment.
The College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning at the University of Cincinnati has as its primary mission the creation of a better visual and design environment. Through excellence in educational programs, research, creative works, and service to the community, the faculty, the students, and administrative officers of DAAP are dedicated to achieve this mission.
DAAPcamps
DAAPcamps are week-long immersions for high school and middle school students to explore their creative passion areas and expand their skills in specific disciplines.
Each day at camp includes time spent in the studio, on field trips, and social activities for the perfect mix of practice and inspiration.
DAAPcares
DAAPcares celebrates the work of DAAP students, faculty, staff, and alumni who are making the world better.
From local projects to global ones, solo efforts to team collaborations, we turn ideas into real solutions. Each year, we showcase this work in a celebration of projects built to last, with lasting impact on the environment, economy, and culture.
Saturday Art Program
The Saturday Art Program welcomes children and teens from the Greater Cincinnati area.
Through art, students explore and make sense of the world around them. The program welcomes learners of all ages, skill levels, and backgrounds.
