OCAD University has been around for 136 years, as studio based and hands on learning environment. One of the things that sets us apart from other post-secondary institutions is our campus: it is a creative hub and the centre of our creative community. It is a place for learning, mess-making, experimenting, collaboration and studio-based learning. Welcome, let me take you on a quick tour:

This is just a fraction of the campus, but gives you a sense of the space: funky, functional, multi-purposed and unique. We hope you’ll have the chance to visit us in person!
