For over 40 years, Toronto School of Art has established itself as one of the most distinguished alternative arts schools in the city. While their history alone sets them apart, it’s their ideology that truly defines TSA. TSA believes in taking an organic approach to the arts. This translates into a hands-on education model that focuses on studio-based learning. TSA offers students the opportunity to work with practicing artists in a close, one-on-one environment. What this entails is a rigorous study of the arts through a challenging, tactile application of every skill set learned.
For many years, Toronto School of Art (TSA) has been an active community partner with Akin, fostering collaboration and support on both ends. A number of current Akin members are also staff members and instructors at TSA and you could be too!
