Academy of Modern Art



It took over a hundred years, but Vancouver's Kerrisdale has an Academy of Modern Art. Located in a cheaply made Second Renaissance Revival Style redux building at the southwest corner of Balsam and 41st Avenue, the AOMA features all manner of instruction.

Here is the AOMA in its own words:

Vision:

To be Vancouver’s premiere Art Preparatory Academy.

Misson:

To inspire, guide, and educate talented art students on their way to achieving their post-secondary goals and dreams.

The Academy of Modern Art (AOMA) is a Vancouver based art education institution dedicated to transitioning art and design students to their post-secondary school of choice.
We train and guide passionate art students that are on their path to top art and design post secondary programs across North America and Europe. Our instructors include university professors, designers, artists and curators. They are all working professionals with first-hand knowledge and experience in their field of expertise.
AOMA’S teaching methods and art curriculum is designed by leading education experts and consultants. AOMA’s Young Artists Program provides recent art and design college graduates with internship and working opportunities. We believe these young and innovative new graduates contribute in a positive and meaningful way to AOMA’s development.
Our unique education system aims at assisting students to realize and achieve their full potential. AOMA students are equipped with professional competitiveness, artistic literacy, and a comprehensive understanding of their field of interest. Enrolling in some of the World’s top art and design institutions are dreams that AOMA is devoted to helping local and international art talents achieve.
Our “O” has a special meaning that represents the spirit of AOMA.
