While the world races to automate creativity, our students are doing the opposite. They're learning to make things the correct way. Illustration. Motion graphics. Branding. Animation. Web. With their own hands, their own eyes, and the kind of trained creative judgment no algorithm can fake.
Why students love this program:
• Small class sizes where you're a name, not a number
• Personalized attention from instructors who know your work
• A tight creative community in one of BC's most creative mountain towns
• Hands-on studio time with industry-standard gear and software
• Real projects, real critiques, real growth
• Studios so good you'll want to live in them
• Mountains, lakes, and trails the moment you step outside the studio
• Nelson is a real college town with a vibrant night life in a gorgeous natural setting
Why families love this program:
• World-class instruction from working professionals
• Tuition that won't bury you (or your kid) in debt
• A portfolio that gets graduates hired locally, nationally, anywhere
Anyone can prompt. Designers create.
Start your career here. Or your degree. Or both.

Wanting to make things isn’t enough.
You need a room. You need the tools. You need someone who’ll show you once and then let you get on with it.
That’s what small looks like. That’s what small town education gives you. No line ups to use the printer, and an instructor that remembers your name.
Selkirk graduates don’t just leave with a diploma and a hard drive full of concepts. They leave with work. Physical things. Real files. A portfolio that existed before second year.
On April 17th and 18th, come see what these talented students have created.
Then ask yourself where you want to be this time next year.
