California Institute of the Arts has set the pace for educating professional artists since 1970. Offering rigorous undergraduate and graduate degree programs through six schools—Art, Critical Studies, Dance, Film/Video, Music, and Theatre—CalArts has championed creative excellence, critical reflection, and the development of new art forms and expressions. As successive generations of faculty and alumni have helped shape the landscape of contemporary arts, the Institute, first envisioned by Walt Disney, encompasses a vibrant, eclectic community with global reach, inviting experimentation, independent inquiry, and active collaboration and exchange among artists, artistic disciplines, and cultural traditions.
California Institute of the Arts is located in the Santa Clarita Valley at 24700 McBean Parkway, Valencia, California 91355.
CalArts 2017 MFA Open Studios is made possible with generous support from the Office of the President, Office of the Provost, Student Affairs, School of the Arts, Office of Advancement, and the Office of Marketing & Communications. Without their support, this event would not be possible.
