Mount Royal School of Art is a multi-disciplinary MFA program that allows student artists to work in ways most appropriate to their individual research--focusing their exploration within a specific medium or crossing into a wide array of disciplines and media as they engage in intensive studio practice. The Mount Royal School of Art nurtures a variety of approaches and media including painting, sculpture, video, animation, installation, conceptual art, performance, sound, photography, new media, and supports experimentation into new directions.
This program supports student artists in developing an intensive, critical, and imaginative art practice in an exciting and diverse community enriched by a broad selection of established artists, museum curators, and collectors. By encouraging to experiment and synthesize research from various experiences, interests, and disciplines, Mount Royal School of Art prepares the cohort to imagine an art for the future.
