Oh, dear, I am so sorry. Pesach should be with family. Is there no way at all that you can get there?
Alternatively, is there a community seder somewhere in your town/campus that you can attend?

SlamuelBTP is always correct. Where do you live? I'm sure there'll be some hospitable people around, who will be glad to have you. Do you live near any Orthodox synagogues?
Or, just go in when they open the door during the Seder. mrgreen Reality is just often wrong.

Word. Pesach should be spent with family. Blood or non-blood(close friends who have become family). Spend it with people you care about and for.
Pesach is about family, tradition, life, freedom, resistance, sticking it the man, good food, remembering our humble roots, remembering that even though we have been inslaved and killed/murdered by almost every single freaking ethnicity, nationality, religion, and people in the world besides our own and that we survived, remembering that we may be a minority that the world constantly underestimates but we have a strong and powerful voice and that we are a force to be reckoned with, and that nothing can be rid of us, since one way or another we always rise back up.
So even if you couldn't spend it with family, you could hold your own pesach with your friends and teach them about it and share with them your heritage and culture. You could also spend it with the Hillel at your school. I'm sure your art school has a Hillel. You can't be the only jew that goes to that art school. There has to be more. Or you can start a club for Jewish kids and falculty and have a pesach together.

There is one other Jewish student and three instructors, that I know of, at my school.
I would love to hold a Seder with my friends, but I don't know enough to have a Seder on my own, yet. sweatdrop
BTW, I'm an Ethnic Jew.

You're celebrating Passover, that's more than a cultural Jew or ethnic Jew.
Also, there is a lot to Passover that is awesome, and many places on the web that can help you to understand more about it.

An Adam Sandler Passover
(to the tune of Adam Sandler's "Chanukah Song")
This is a song for all those kids who can't eat
leavened things during Passover.
Jerry from Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, too
Celebrate Passover, just like me and you...
At the cliffs of Dover,
We'll celebrate Passover
We'll sing "Crimson and Clover"
and celebrate Passover
Guess who gets together for first and second Seder
Dr. Mike, the Medicine Woman and Ruth Ginsberg (Bader)
Most of us eat chicken soup, with a matzoh ball
Even some old movie stars, like Lauren Bacall...
Jeff Goldblum thinks of slaves' strife,
So do Neil Diamond, Kerri Strug, and Woody Allen's new wife.
Mayim Bialik eats lots of maror,
So does Madeline Albright, but not Tipper Gore.
So many people dipping parsely in salt water,
I think including someone from "Welcome Back Kotter"!
So get out your Charoses,
it's time to talk about Moses,
And open the door for Elijah,
He really might surprise ya.
Not a Jew is unabomber Ted Kaczynski...
But guess who is--White House intern Monica Lewinsky!
Tell old Pharoah to let my people go,
So I can have Seder with David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow.
And guess who asks the four questions, timidly and shyly,
We know him as Carter from ER, but his real name's Noah Wyle!
For eight long days, we cannot eat bread or rice,
But guess who can? The boys from Hanson and Ginger Spice!
The girl who plays Colleen on Dr. Quinn is named Jessica Bowman,
I bet if she was Jewish she would find the Afikomen!
Tell Big Bird and Grover
It's time for Passover
Get in your Land Rover,
and come celebrate Passover.
