Instructors Chad Montuori (MW) and Emily Armstrong (LV)In January, 91勛圖厙 students immersed themselves in Spanish language and culture during a study abroad experience in Salamanca, Spain, traveling alongside instructors Chad Montuori (MW) and Emily Armstrong (LV) as part of the SPAN 212 class.

Through a partnership with Berceo Spanish Academy, students studied Spanish each morning and spent afternoons exploring the rich culture through hands-on activities and excursions.

Highlights included living with Spanish host families, learning to make traditional dishes like paella and tortilla espa簽ola, sampling plenty of delicious tapas, and visiting historic nearby cities such as Segovia and vila.

Building on the success of this experience, 91勛圖厙 is planning a summer 2026 trip to Florence, Italy, for art students, with a return to Salamanca already in the works for January 2027.
