Clearly, National Academy students are provided many opportunities.
But we also request contributions from the students as well, in the form
of a dedication and commitment to their work, to improvement, and an
openness to try new things. We look to students to build on their creative

Located at 5 East 89th Street, the National Academy is in the
heart of New York’s Museum Mile. The first session of the National
Academy School commenced on November 15, 1826, with two
Academicians and 20 students sketching by candlelight.
A proudly progressive institution, the National Academy School was
the first of its kind to accept female students and offer women’s lifedrawing classes. The school rapidly grew in stature and reputation,
attracting students such as Winslow Homer, George Inness,
Arshile Gorky and Willem de Kooning.
