  • Would you like to study art, but haven't got a portfolio or a place? Your goal is to work professionally in the arts, but you don't know where to start? Or would you like to deepen your education extensively and intensively?

     

    We are the only academy in Germany to train state-approved painters and sculptors! With us, you will learn drawing, painting or modeling from scratch in a comprehensive academic course - even without any previous knowledge.

    Simply arrange a free consultation with us & together we can find out which path would suit you best!

  • Our home is in a creative city! Bad Homburg is located in the metropolitan region near Frankfurt am Main and is therefore easy to reach by car via the A5 & A661 and by subway, bus & train within walking distance of the Academy. Due to our quiet location outside the city center, there are many free parking spaces in the surrounding streets. To give you the opportunity to enjoy our spa gardens, the castle and the romantic old town alongside your artistic work, we recommend staying in one of Bad Homburg's many hotels or private accommodation for longer workshops.
