Fleming College

OUR ART CERTIFICATES ARE INTENSE

Our school leads the way in providing a wide variety of studio-based art programs. Delivered in over 30,000 square feet of dedicated art space, individual class sizes are small, ensuring you have access to equipment, room to work, and time to interact with faculty. Each week you learn alongside a different faculty member who brings their unique perspective and expertise into the studio. Equivalent to two-semesters of full-time study, our accelerated 15-week certificates provide over 600 hours of hands-on studio time. Certificates are offered as stand-alone programs and in conjunction with our Visual and Creative Arts, and Integrated Design diplomas.

And unlike other foundation programs, you will have opportunities to implement your design skills in our art studios and new Centre for Making. Discover new creative possibilities, and enhance your understanding of materials and production techniques. For your second year (third semester) of the program, you can choose to specialize by selecting one of our accelerated art certificates, or apply for direct entry into year two of the Graphic Design – Visual Communication program. Space is limited for this pathway, details are available here.

The new Centre for Making, located at the Haliburton Campus, is a space where students in any program can come learn, explore and create using technology as tools for making and prototyping. The new facility houses 3D printers, scanners, laser engraver, vinyl cutter, industrial sewing machine, large scale plotter printer, animation stations and assorted photography equipment.

Art Programs

We think differently about art education. Our programs are integrated to provide innovative ways for students to experience the connection between art practices, and the disciplines of art and design.
