Welcome to Oregon College of Art and Craft, a school that blends the traditional practice of craft and art making with innovation and experimentation.
We believe that art and craft are essential to our lives, and that everyone should have a chance to explore them. Our campus is nestled in the beautiful forests of Portland, and provides a unique environment for exploration and growth.
At Oregon College of Art and Craft, our students learn how to express themselves in creative ways, how to think critically about their craft, and how to collaborate with others in order to create something beautiful. Our faculty are passionate about their work, and provide a supportive learning environment.
We offer a variety of courses in art and craft, from traditional mediums such as painting, sculpture, and pottery, to more experimental practices such as digital media, performance art, and installation. We also offer courses in design, photography, filmmaking, writing, and more. Each course is tailored to the individual student's interests, so that they can develop their skills in a way that meets their goals.
At Oregon College of Art and Craft we strive to create an environment that fosters creativity and encourages collaboration. We believe in creating an atmosphere of acceptance where everyone is welcome to explore their craft without fear of judgement or criticism. We celebrate diversity in all forms—race, gender identity, sexuality, age—and strive to create a community where everyone feels valued.
Our graduates go on to work in a variety of fields: from professional artists to gallery owners; from museum curators to independent artisans; from fashion designers to graphic designers; from film makers to writers; from sculptors to potters; from illustrators to photographers. No matter what path they choose, our students leave with the skills they need to thrive in the world of art and craft.
At Oregon College of Art and Craft we are dedicated to providing our students with an inspiring learning experience that will open up new possibilities for them. Our faculty strive to provide the best education possible for each individual student so that they can reach their full potential. We are committed to helping our students develop into creative individuals who are capable of making meaningful contributions to society.
