About the Program
Learn about the creative and performing arts sector in one of the world's most dynamic and innovative cities. Experience the cultural diversity and artistic creativity of London showcased in its many arts and entertainment venues such as concert halls, galleries, performance spaces, exhibitions, and festivals. As part of the included My Global City cultural events, you’ll tour Camden, the birthplace of Punk culture; taste an authentic curry on Brick Lane; and see a performance at Shakespeare's Globe theater. Semester students can take advantage of CAPA’s own black box theater space in the London center with a fully equipped lighting rig and sound system. It can host student performances, visiting shows, and a range of creative workshops.
Take courses in arts administration, art history, performance, literature, and film, plus take courses across the CAPA London Global Cities curriculum in disciplines such as business, history, and global studies. Enhance your experience by adding an optional for-credit creative arts internship, through which you’ll gain professional experience, connect with locals, and build your resume.
