San Francisco’s large and culturally diverse community inspires creativity, collaboration and learning. At Academy of Art University, our students from across the globe are united by their passions, dreams, and determination of a shared goal—to learn how to, and then become, the best of the best in all areas of art and design. The campus and its artsy surrounding environment is filled with student activities, local events, and learning commons feeding into the creative energy that drives not only the city, but the campus where the ordinary becomes the extraordinary.
