Academy of Art University Offers Free Art and Design Online Workshops This Summer


Published on July 04, 2020

Academy of Art University is excited to announce that it is offering a wide selection of art and design online workshops in July and August. These online workshops are open to the public and offered free of charge. Each workshop will run for 90 minutes, and participants will be able to learn hands-on skills and techniques from the Academy’s acclaimed faculty members from its 22 departments or guest working professionals. The workshops are designed to be interactive and engaging; participants have an opportunity to ask questions via chat during the workshop and are encouraged to share their work on social media with a special hashtag, #ArtUFreeWorkshop.

In addition to over 135 accredited degree programs, pre-college art and design classes and continuing education programs are also available to take 100% online.
