Why Nagpur students choose
Visual Arts Academy
Animation, VFX, and design careers no longer require moving to a metro. Here is how learning in Nagpur sets you up for the same industry, at a fraction of the cost.
A real studio in Manewada, Nagpur
Visual Arts Academy is a physical studio in Manewada, easy to reach from Dharampeth, Civil Lines, Sadar, Wardha Road, Sitabuldi, and the Mihan IT corridor. You learn on professional workstations with classmates next to you, not alone in front of a YouTube playlist.
Built for students from RTMNU, VNIT, and Nagpur colleges
Most of our students come from Nagpur colleges, RTMNU affiliates, VNIT, KITS, Priyadarshini, and engineering and arts colleges across Vidarbha. Our schedules are designed around college timings, with weekend and evening batches that work alongside your degree.
Save on Mumbai or Pune migration costs
Moving to Mumbai or Pune for an animation course can cost ₹15,000-25,000 per month in living expenses alone. By learning in Nagpur, you save lakhs over the duration of the course. The same industry-grade training, without leaving home.
Plug into the growing Nagpur creative industry
Nagpur's creative industry is expanding fast, with design studios, advertising agencies, video production houses, and animation startups setting up around Mihan and the city's IT parks. Many of our alumni now work for Nagpur-based studios as well as remote roles for Mumbai, Pune, and Bangalore studios.
Remote-ready skills for global studios
Once you have a strong portfolio, you can work remotely for studios in Mumbai, Bangalore, or even London and Los Angeles. We teach the same software the global industry uses, so a designer trained in Nagpur is as employable as one trained anywhere else.
A small Nagpur creative community that supports you
When you join Visual Arts Academy, you join an active community of Nagpur designers, animators, and VFX artists. Our alumni stay connected, refer each other for jobs, collaborate on freelance projects, and support new students. Studying in Nagpur does not mean studying in isolation.
Easy to reach from anywhere in Nagpur
Our Manewada studio is well-connected by road and city transport. Students travel to us from Dharampeth, Civil Lines, Sadar, Sitabuldi, Wardha Road, Hingna, Koradi Road, Khamla, Pratap Nagar, Trimurti Nagar, Jaripatka, and the Mihan and Butibori industrial zones. The average commute is 15-25 minutes from most localities.
If you are searching for an animation institute near Dharampeth, graphic design classes near Sadar, a VFX course near Civil Lines, or video editing training near Mihan, Visual Arts Academy is within an easy commute. Visit the studio, sit through a live class, and see how creative training in Nagpur looks when it is taken seriously.
