Arts Academy at Turku University of Applied Sciences
The Arts Academy at Turku University of Applied Sciences offers education following programmes: fine arts, performing arts and music and media. The Degree Programme in Fine Arts continues the traditions of fine arts studies set up by Turku School of Fine Arts, founded in 1830, and reflects the various aspects and starting points of contemporary art.
