At Visthar academy of culture and contemporary studies (VACCS), we understand the concern of a parent/guardians about how choosing a visual arts degree would shape the career of their children. Post-pandemic the dynamics of education and career building have taken a twist, with things turning online and the markets becoming more and more volatile with inflation year on year, our key objective is to prepare the students one notch above the regular curriculum. 

Having a fleet of practising artists who are constantly updating themselves with the outside world and the new age technology along with the sensitivity of conscious living on our teaching panel becomes an added advantage for the students to get exposure to live projects along with a qualification.

Giving students placement assistance is a part of our holistic pedagogy. Rest assured the students who show inclination in any department of specialization will have an edge over their contemporaries.
