Nova Scotia College of Art and Design

NSCAD is no ordinary art institution. It's a place for curious minds to freely explore. A place for critical thinkers who never tire of asking why? What for? What if? At NSCAD, we think of curiosity as the spark that ignites everything. And year after year, our halls are filled with new faces who share this same fire. Located in the heart of Halifax, Nova Scotia – Atlantic Canada's largest and most vibrant city – NSCAD is an immersive environment in which adventurous thinkers and makers discover their passion and themselves. If you believe that creative ideas can build a better world, there's a place for you here. NSCAD offers a rigorous, interdisciplinary educational experience that is unlike any other art school in the country. For more than 125 years, our students, faculty and administrators have shared a commitment to experimentation, progressive thinking and cutting-edge art and design. Many students report that their time here completely shaped the way that they think. It changed their lives. It will change yours too. Some of the most innovative creators of the last century have marched through our halls and spent their days (and nights) in our studios. After leaving NSCAD, members of our alumni community go on to transform ideas into reality, fueling the creative economy and accomplishing singularly amazing things. Be one of them.
