Masters - in Craft Media

AUArts’s MFA in Craft Media is a collaborative, cross-disciplinary, studio-based program that gives you the freedom to explore possibilities, push limits, and reimagine your practice.

Students enjoy an immersive learning environment with plenty of opportunities to experiment with materials, engage with ideas, and be challenged to push the boundaries of what is possible as they generate and apply original knowledge.

Small class sizes encourage interaction with and mentorship by exceptional faculty who are master practitioners and respected scholars.

Robust rosters of visiting artists, dedicated studio technicians, a speciality library, and the renowned Illingworth Kerr Gallery ensure students have a rich learning environment and lots of support.

AUArts acknowledges that it rests on the traditional Treaty 7 territories of the Blackfoot people. In the spirit of our efforts to promote reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional territories and oral practices of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Piikani and Kainai), the Tsuut’ina (Sarcee), the Stoney Nakoda First Nations (Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley), the Metis Nation (Region 3) and all those who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.

Since 1926, AUArts has inspired thousands of students to pursue their dreams.

As Alberta's only dedicated art, craft and design institution, we're proud to play an important role in nurturing creativity and driving innovation in our province and worldwide. From our academic programs to grass-roots community partnerships, a lot is going on at AUArts – we hope you'll join us.
