Material cost supplies are requested by your instructor for their course materials and are prepared by the Studio Managers for the upcoming semester. The course materials are often placed in class boxes or kits and distributed during class workshops. These "Class Material Costs" are payable at the MICA Store. We hope that all payments are made by Monday, September 23rd, 2024.

There could be additional material cost associated with certain techniques and facilities:
Example: Students who are taking a course where the TC2 loom is being taught and the loom is planned in the curriculum will not need to pay for the cost of the warp. However, students who are returning to use the loom and are not currently in a class who is using the TC2 loom will be able to weave 36 inches on department cost. Once they weave over 36 inches, the department requests students pay for the warp materials. -Warp thread cost for the TC2 loom 42 cents and inch
Please contact our Chrissy Day (cday01@mica.edu) or Jenelle Legge (jlegge@mica.edu) if you have questions concerning using the TC2 Loom.
