Alumni support the College in a variety of important ways. Through
public acknowledgement of their alma mater at exhibitions and juried
competitions, alumni are the College’s most visible and influential
ambassadors.
Alumni also serve the College as an important resource for incoming
students. No one is better qualified to answer a prospective student’s
questions than one of our alumni. The Alumni and Admissions Office
are happy to put prospective students in touch with alumni from
the inquiring student’s geographic area. Alumni who are interested
in serving as admissions representatives and talking with prospective
students should contact Ann de Selding, Assistant Director of Alumni
Services at 860-434-3571, ext. 117 or adeselding@lymeacademy.edu.
Alumni also play an important role in supporting the Lyme Academy
College of Fine Arts through their financial and in-kind contributions.
Many alumni are leading contributors to the College supporting the
Alumni Association, the Annual Appeal and the development of scholarships.
Alumni contribute art work for sale at fundraising auctions, such
as Arts Ball and also volunteer time to promote events and opportunities
on campus. They may also serve as mentors for current students enrolled
in the BFA program.
