At CCAD, we believe art is for everyone—and that everyone is an artist. We’ve been central Ohio’s home for artists and art education since our founding. We welcome you to join us for a class—or ten!
Why CCAD for Art Classes?
Experienced Instructors & Practicing Artists
Our community art classes are led by local creators and designers with a passion for their craft and love for sharing their knowledge with others.
Reputation & Legacy
We’ve been leaders in art education since 1879, and we’ve been innovating ever since. CCAD is a driving force in the Columbus arts scene, and our community classes are a big part of that.
Scholarships & Opportunities
We offer youth scholarships, as well as alumni and veteran discounts. Community members are also welcome to attend other events and exhibitions on campus, too. Applications for need-based scholarships for Creative Summer Workshops can be found here. The deadline to apply is May 13, 2024.

CAREER & PROFESSIONAL CREDENTIALS
The instructor is wonderful and has a lot of passion for the arts. In the class, she was enthusiastic, helpful, and approachable. She taught me lots of embroidery skills and printmaking skills. I looked forward to coming to class every day, and I now use the skills I learned at home.
Art for All
No matter what your age, CCAD is a home for creativity, expression, and learning.
