MISSION STATEMENT

New York Alt Arts Academy offers in-depth classes teaching creativity and shares resources for all aspects of the arts & entertainment industry. All classes are taught by industry professionals.

“I created the New York Alt Arts Academy because when I started out with my head full of ideas, I had no idea how to execute. There was never a place for me to go to get the answers I needed to get started, get creative, and make my dreams real. That place didn't exist, so I made it.”
