My family and I are very glad to have found Ashcan. From the minute we asked about information about portfolio preparation for Art Specialized High Schools we were given a genuine concern to our requests. Sora is very welcoming and patient. Ashcan welcomed our son and Mr Kim (the Art Director) tailored specific classes in preparation for his art portfolio. Our son was always inspired and motivated when he attended classes at 34th street, the art instructors are all very professional and… attentive to the students.Ashcan art gave the direction and tools needed. It’s thrilling to say our son was accepted to Fiorello Laguardia H.S. and Frank Sinatra H.S. art programs. Thank you for all you do Ashcanread more

A really good experience with Ashcan studio. My son developed his drawing skills as well as his portfolio. Good portfolio preparation for LaGuardia High school.will still work with Ashcan.

An art school which acted as a bridge towards my dream! way of teaching is brilliant and organized, which makes it easier to work on your works without stress. 10/10 would recommend any art student or anyone who needs any guidance related to art to attend their classes!!

amazing environment, talented instructors and peers, and a close, familial relationship among them :)

Ashcan is a brilliant studio for developing mastery in fine art mediums. The teachers constantly seek to inspire and further your ideas and conceptuality. I would not be the artist I am today, nor would I have been accepted into my first choice school, without Ashcan.

We always have a great time and the ladies who instruct are upbeat and love what they do. Painting with a Twist is a must for everyone.

I studied in Ashcan for 8 months. Thanks to this school, I was able to improve my skills and knowledge a lot and make an amazing portfolio. The teachers are so professional and enthusiastic by giving their full attention to each students!! And the staffs are so nice and friendly. I’ve gotten into a school with a large amount of scholarship! Especially, director Kim, he contacted the school and helped me to get useful resources about application every time. I’m really grateful to Kim and… teachers !!! I’ve studied in many other art schools, Ashcan is the best one ever. I strongly recommend this school!read more

Instructors are very helpful and friendly. They are great artists, passionate about Art and teaching.you get your own table and storage space. With the help I received from Ashcan, I got into many schools with scholarships.

Ashcan helped me get into all of my top schools with generous scholarships! I learned so much here taking specialized classes from many teachers, the learning was fun and relaxing yet very structured and detailed. I left each class session feeling I learned so, so much. I am so grateful to the Ashcan school for what it has done for me and my future, I wouldn’t go anywhere else for art college and portfolio prep.

I studied in the Flushing and Manhattan campuses of Ashcan Studio of Art as transfer student. I was accepted to my school of choice with a generous scholarship. I didn’t really have good skills of drawing and painting when I first went to Ashcan. Ashcan is full of instructors who are knowledgeable, responsible and accommodating. They often check on every student in the class and always try their best to teach more and help more with the specific project. The entire atmosphere in Ashcan was… comfortable, friendly and inspiring. I felt that I made more progress after each project. What I like most about Ashcan is that they don’t strictly operate as a business chasing profits, but that they are really art lovers. It was really worthy to study and prepare my portfolio in Ashcan.read more
