- Mission Statement
- The primary objective of Northwest College of Art is to play a significant educational role in preparing individuals for rewarding career opportunities in the creative arts.
Our faculty of professional educators, working artists and designers guide students through a curriculum that is designed to develop technical expertise and encourage
creative excellence. Classes are kept small (maximum 25 students in a typical class setting) to ensure a personal approach to education. While the average NCA student
is between the ages of 18 and 25 and typically first career bound, NCA also welcomes returning students who are ready to fulfill their creative ambitions.
