Arts and Skills Institute (ASI)
Arts and Skills Institute (ASI) is located in downtown Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. The Institute is pioneering education and training in fashion and visual arts for women as the first educational institution of its type in Saudi Arabia.
The Institute combines Australian teaching methods and specialised training in art and design while incorporating the history, heritage and values of Saudi society.
Established in 2007, a feature of the institute is the distinctive ground floor Art Pur Foundation Gallery, in which students can exhibit their creations and gain valuable practical experience. In June 2009, the ‘Transit’ exhibition showcased the talents of the Institute’s first fashion graduates.
As our educational partner, ASI provides Australian national qualifications recognised by the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation of Saudi Arabia (TVET).
The Institute currently offers the following two-year courses:
- Diploma of Textiles Clothing and Footwear
- Diploma of Arts (Visual Arts)
An extensive range of short courses is also provided in painting, sculpture and multimedia.
