It starts with the art

You'll make art from day one, taking visual arts courses during Year 1 in drawing, painting, sculpture and design. From there you'll build progressively toward mastery of an individual visual arts skill-set. Students can earn a college certificate after one year, a diploma after two years, or an advanced diploma by remaining in the program for a third year.

Career Opportunities

You’ll have many opportunities to use your visual arts diploma in the Greater Toronto Area, which is the centre of Canada’s cultural sector. An education in the field of art and design is one that is not only personally rewarding, but has a very broad range of applications. Creative thinking, problem solving and taking an artistic approach in any situation can have positive results. From the broad based skills acquired in the Visual and Creative Arts program, recent graduates have found success as fine artists, designers, fabricators and in commercial and public gallery employment.
