Open Doors 2019

Created in 2006 from the merger of two prestigious schools, the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts and the Haute École d’Arts Appliqués, HEAD – Genève draws on a rich cultural and artistic heritage to nurture young creative talent nationally and internationally. Renowned for the quality of its bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Fine Arts, Cinema, Interior Architecture, Space and Communication, Visual Communication as well as Fashion, Jewellery, Accessory and Watch Design, it has established itself as one of the leading schools of art and design in Europe.

With workshops, a library, film studio and vast auditorium able to host major cultural events, the new campus gives HEAD – Genève the means to achieve its current and future goals for teaching and research. The superb Gustave & Léonard Hentsch Park, open to students and the public alike, completes this space dedicated to art and design, the home of over 700 students from 40 different countries, as well as 200 teaching staff. 

Over two days, HEAD – Genève is opening its doors; you will be able to find out more about BA and MA courses. You will be able to visit the classrooms, facilities and workshops where you will study. You will have the opportunity to meet current students at work and hear more about the programmes. You will be able to see exhibitions and projects in art or design and feel the taste of what studying at HEAD is. Come and share with teachers, artists, designers and filmmakers that make HEAD unique!
