Yukon School of Visual Arts Competitors

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.

At PMAC, our mission is to build community through the arts. Since 2002, our nonprofit arts center has empowered students of all ages and abilities—from curious beginners to seasoned creatives—through exceptional music and visual arts education. Whether it’s private lessons, ensemble performances, gallery exhibitions, or free community events, every program at PMAC is designed to connect people, foster creativity, and promote access to the arts. Our Teaching Artists are not only top-tier professionals—they’re compassionate mentors who tailor their approach to each individual’s goals. The arts are essential to human well-being, and to a vibrant, connected community. They teach us a language of emotion, identity, and connection. That’s why accessibility is central to our mission: from robust tuition aid to 80+ free events annually, we constantly strive to ensure the arts are available to all. Come learn, create, and belong.
