imagine…
Imagine attending a public high school in the heart of downtown St. Paul, unlike any other in the country. Learn the skills and techniques to become a professional artist from current working artists. Receive a college conservatory level arts education under the guidance of current professional artists. Prepare for college academically in on-level, advanced or AP classes.
A private school experience at a public school price.
No audition. No tuition.
I had an amazing experience at this arts school! From the moment I walked through the door, I felt inspired by the creativity and talent all around me. The faculty and staff were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, always pushing me to be my best and never giving up on me. Not only did I develop my artistic skills in ways I never imagined, but I also made lasting friendships with fellow students who share my passion for the arts. The resources and opportunities available at this school are unparalleled, and I feel so grateful to have been a part of such a vibrant and welcoming community. I would highly recommend this arts school to anyone looking to grow their talents and discover their potential as an artist.
An important part of SPCPA’s purpose is to connect the students and the school to the Twin Cities professional arts community in a number of ways.

SPCPA alum about town and the world!
Hippo Campus is comprised completely of SPCPA alum & former students. Make sure to check out their music, available everywhere. Locals can see them live at a rare in-store performance at Electric Fetus on Friday, Sept. 20 to celebrate the release of Flood. For those of you in London, you won't want to miss their show at the celebrated and historic Shepard's Bush Empire.
Way to go guys – best wishes from SPCPA for the new record and tour!
