The purpose <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fering these events is to provide our students with exciting, real-life and hands-on experiences in their field <strong>of</strong> study. BSA students have had the<br />

chance to work backstage with models, famous personalities, top artists and renowned pr<strong>of</strong>essionals. Our students are extremely active in providing makeup and<br />

hairstyling for community grassroots programs, which have included but are not limited to the Children’s Trust Fund Miami Heart Gallery photo shoot, Ms. Black<br />

Teen USA, the Florida Marlins’ Cheerleaders, the Latin Grammy Block Party, as well as famed singers/songwriters.<br />

Participating in these events gives students the opportunity to build their portfolio and experience as they continue to work towards graduation. BSA students<br />

have the advantage <strong>of</strong> networking and building relationships that may be beneficial to their future careers.<br />

ordered mid-month for the following month. For information <strong>of</strong> how to obtain a Student Bus Pass, please contact the Fiscal department at your campus. Please<br />
