| Memphis College of Art, formerly known as Memphis Academy of Arts, was founded in 1936. It offers degrees relating to fine arts, design and art education for undergraduate and graduate students. Privately funded, MCA maintains admission to around 300 students. Located in Overton Park, MCA offers classes and exhibitions for the general public as well as full time students. Housing is on Barksdale Street in a building called Metz Hall, which is based on 1950s architecture as well. |
