ABOUT PARIS COLLEGE OF ART Students from around the world come together at Paris College of Art to build unique perspectives in art and design. Our multi-national community and robust academic programs fuel critical sensitivity toward the globalization of visual culture and its impact on respective art and design fields - a central focus at PCA. Small class sizes and individualized attention from faculty are paired with a collaborative learning environment across art and design fields, where students can develop the discipline and skills required to refine their creative expression and nurture their individual growth.
Our new campus offers a wealth of facilities to support this journey: a dedicated gallery space, inviting social areas for students and faculty, a private terrace, light-filled classrooms, and access to specialized studios including a black-and-white darkroom, 2D and 3D labs, a digital photo studio, a sound recording booth, screening rooms, a fashion studio, ceramics facilities, a printmaking studio, and more. Classes are taught in English alongside optional French language courses to help students fully immerse themselves in Parisian life.

While we view the entire city of Paris as our extended campus, PCA is located in the 17th arrondissement near the Arc de Triomphe. To complement their studies, students explore the city’s many museums and galleries, theaters and music venues, and parks and green spaces, both through their courses and in their personal time. Paris is a beacon for creatives, leading the world in artistic innovation. Join us to study in a city of eternal influence, where creative culture has inspired generations of designers, artists, photographers, and filmmakers.
