About This Site

Established in 1873, Massachusetts College of Art (MassArt) was the first and remains the only four-year independent public college of art and design in the US. The college is nationally known for offering broad access to a quality professional arts education, accompanied by a strong general education in the liberal arts, awarding the BFA, MFA, and MSAE degrees, as well as certificates in graphic and industrial design and design for interactive communication.

MassArt offers twenty areas of concentration. The college's extraordinary facilities enable students to explore an amazing variety of art-making processes from the traditional to the most modern. With nearly a million square feet of classroom, studio, and workshop space, MassArt's space-per-student ration is one of the highest among the nation's art schools.

The college is a leader in arts education, developing a wide range of programs for both elementary and secondary school students and teachers. A major cultural force in Boston, MassArt offers public programs of innovative exhibitions, lectures and events.
