Ready to get your hands dirty? ACAD degree programs are studio-based and hands-on. ACAD students excel in our studios; exploring diverse media and applying new techniques while immersing themselves in the practice and culture of art and design.
You sculpt your mashed potatoes. Your sketchbook's your loyal sidekick. You're creative. So, what will you make at college?
Becoming an artist or designer requires a hefty dose of passion, openness to all things new and the confidence to face a raw blob of clay or a blank canvas.
