I graduated from this program in 2017 or 2018 and it was one of the best decisions I made during my high school education. This program is incredible. Not only are you taught invaluable knowledge by fantastic artists but it is also an opportunity to meet other creatives of a similar age. This course has helped me pursue a career in fashion design and has most definitely given me a leg up. I highly recommend this course and hope that one day I will be able to give back everything they have done for me! Thank you Ryman Arts!

This place is great for any aspiring artist, but the workload can be a bit much if you are taking a heavy workload at school. No one holds you accountable for the homework but if you miss assignments, it will get very awkward during the weekly feedback sessions. The instructors can also be extremely blunt and harsh. I wouldn't recommend asking letters of recommendation unless you are exceptional. I also wouldn't recommend applying unless you are truly passionate about art. This is not suitable as a side extracurricular because of the amount of extra work involved.

Can’t say enough. Outstanding program for diverse talented young artists.

I was planning to enter to Lear how to draw but sadly I can’t draw so I have a low chance to enter but I really looked forward to entering

An amazing program for high school students with helpful, caring staff! (I attended for my senior year and regret not applying sooner!) Classes are comparable to that of a college level studio course and are geared to help students build a portfolio for future college applications. The classes are also easily accessible on the weekends at either Cal State Fullerton or Otis College in DTLA (whichever is closest to you). The supplies and field trips are also free if you get accepted!

Just walking in the front door will stimulate your creative energy. What an amazing concept of pulling all of these creative souls together for a place of teaching, learning, creating and sharing. I LOVE IT!!!!

Amazing program
