Oregon College of Art and Craft

(Portland, OR)

A Creative Community in Portland offering degree, certificate and individual classes for the public, young and old. OCAC is a place to learn how to think, not what to think, how to craft art, not what art to craft. It’s a place to develop a breadth of experience with different materials that is very rare in our age of specialization, yet extraordinarily useful in today’s ever changing art world. It’s that rare place where everyone’s views are valued, where careful and caring discussion and respect for difference are the guiding rules, not the exception. OCAC is an intentionally small, exceptionally student-centered art college gathering people from all over the country.
