The Intermedia Student Organization (ISO) was created to propel IMFA graduate students forward through professional and creative development. Twice a year we offer a grant cycle for students to apply for funding for their research and studio production practices. The ISO offers opportunities for students to lead workshops, give public talks and presentations, exhibit work and research, compete for outside funding and to interact and work with artists and professionals in a wide variety of fields and disciplines. To become a member of the ISO one must first be a full time matriculating student through the Intermedia MFA program at the University of Maine.
