|  The Community Education department welcomes the general public to experience the distinctive learning environment of the San Francisco Art Institute and encourages engagement with faculty, students, and facilities through a wide range of classes, workshops, and special programs. Both inside and outside of the classroom, you will have the opportunity to talk with other students, develop a dialog with faculty—many of whom are current or recent graduates of the Art Institute’s prestigious Master of Fine Arts program—absorb information on technique and practice, and hone your aesthetic and critical skills. On-campus you will be surrounded by the energy of the students in our degree programs and experience first-hand the work and ideas of the internationally recognized visiting artists who participate in our community through lectures, exhibitions, and commissioned projects.
If you are interested in developing your own artistic vision or in learning more about the art of our time, we invite you to become part of the San Francisco Art Institute community — exchange ideas, develop new work and learn what it means to be an artist in today’s world.

Youth Arts Collaborative (YAC) Youth Arts Collaborative is an innovative program that places Art Institute students, faculty, and visiting artists into community organizations that work with teens to create works of contemporary art. The program expands the artistic vocabulary of Art Institute students so they will be better prepared to enter their communities as effective, creative agents for change and provides arts training for undeserved youth in San Francisco. Some of the collaborative projects are connected to academic classes and some are independent projects that work with visiting artists.
