Riverside School for the Arts (RSA) is an innovative curriculum project of Riverside City College. Its programs complement, enhance and expand on the existing degrees and certificates offered at the College. Students may enroll in any individual courses, certificates, or degree programs they choose. RSA programs lead to achievement in the arts and the enterprise of arts with an emphasis on the practical skills needed to be financially successful in the extensive new areas found in the arts as they converge with new media.
Strong ties to the entertainment and multimedia industries enhance the practical aspects of the program and guarantee that students will receive a world-class education that matches projected employment opportunities. RSA will offer an extraordinary education for talented young artists, at affordable, community college prices, and train them as conceptual and critical thinkers, communicators, and resourceful learners.
Riverside School for the Arts is developing new and creative programs of study that lead students to reach advanced levels of critical thinking, technical ability, and artistic achievement. The focus of RSA’s new programs is on combining the arts with technology and the transfer programs with career technical education. When the programs are fully realized, we will be developing well-prepared individuals who are flexible, able to learn new skills, and eager to work within a team.
Mission
The mission of the Riverside School for the Arts (RSA) is to provide students authentic, integrated, project-based arts education experiences leading to the most advanced levels of technical, aesthetic, and reflective skills needed to be creatively competent in a knowledge-based economy.
