PORTFOLIO REVIEWS 12-2 pm
Ready to see where your art can take you? After the Admissions Presentation, sit down with our team for a Portfolio Review—a one-on-one chance to get personalized feedback that can help sharpen your creative vision and fuel your next steps.
At the Art Academy, every student applies with a portfolio because we’re looking for more than just talent—we’re looking for makers. The artists who can’t stop creating. The writers who fill journals even when no one’s grading. The visionaries already shaping their own voice.
We see your passion. Now let’s push it—and together, shape the future of contemporary art.
Fifteen minutes. Big feedback. Bigger opportunities.
