What isn’t art nowadays? It’s the biggest part of our visual culture, if you think about it. Art, in all its forms, has shown to be progressive and transformative into each year, each era, each century.

Those who find themselves in these shoes often come face to face with the decision of whether or not to attend art school. Does art school possess value or does it remain a waste of time and money?
