Artists engage the world through conventional and unconventional means, to document the news of the day, to convey the emotion of another human being, to access unknown worlds and new adventures and even to alter our viewpoint, our space. At the Corcoran College of Art + Design, you will have the opportunity to study those who have challenged complacency with their own work and the ability to create your own path of self-expression and exploration.

Grounded in a long tradition of excellence in education, the Corcoran provides an intimate learning experience that balances the rigors of academic studies with opportunities for independent study. At the heart of your Corcoran experience is our renowned faculty, including some of the most active, cutting-edge artists, designers and photographers in the country.

Washington, D.C. is truly your laboratory as you venture through four-years of study at the Corcoran. You will find new sources of inspirations that are both rooted deeply in the principles of academia and so new, that the ideas and concepts will unfurl before you.

You will push the boundaries of commonality, engage in dialogue about the latest exhibition at The Smithsonian and leaf through pages of history at the National Archives. The Corcoran is Washington’s oldest private museum and as a student of this dynamic museum-college, you will discover the best that the city has to offer.

Come and reach your potential and beyond at the Corcoran College of Art + Design.
