New York Academy of Art

“Living far away from NYC I never thought I'd be able to take a course at NYAA - the online modality offered made it possible! ”

“I have taken several online classes and workshops over the past 2 years from a variety of artists and schools. I have found your format and instructors to be top notch. I am a high school art instructor…and working artist. I have personally grown as an artist and have shared what I have learned with my students. ”

“You provide varied options which are both traditional and on trend. These are delivered by instructors who have each been uniquely expressive and passionate about their art, have been able to walk the line between structure and expectation and encouragement of personal artistic growth. Some classes brought in diverse and fascinating influences which widened the focus of the class and in so doing you were in an atmosphere of total inspiration! ”

“It allows me to take a high quality class that has helped me to improve as an artist remotely. I don’t live in New York and though I would love the opportunity to study in person, I would never be able to do so. Online classes make what was previously impossible possible, I’m very grateful for the opportunity. ”

“I loved Zane York's still life class. I took it twice. Part of me always wished I'd gone for an MFA, but thats not something thats accessible to me. I feel like I get an opportunity to take a really challenging masters level course that I could not get anywhere else. It was honestly the most wonderful thing. I learned so much from him. I can't wait to take his course again. ”

“Often continuing ed. classes are thin of content and lacking in teacher concern but these classes were rich in both. I'm already looking at your March offerings, trying to figure out how I can make time for another class.”

“Your teachers are absolutely fantastic. I've taken lots of online courses, but never felt as much of a connection to my teachers as with NYAA.”
