Inside Pratt SCPS: Where Practice Meets the Spotlight
Discover what happens when working creatives, career pivoters, and lifelong makers plug into art and design education at Pratt’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies.
What happens when working creatives, career pivoters, and lifelong makers plug into serious art and design education? Pratt Institute’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS) has the answer on view — online at Production Corner and in person at the SCPS Exhibition Space in Manhattan.
Developed by one of the world’s leading institutions for art and design education, these curated platforms spotlight the ambitious, portfolio-ready work of SCPS students, alumni, and faculty. More than a final critique, Production Corner and the SCPS Exhibition Space are professional launch pads: public-facing forums that showcase completed coursework and certificate projects with equal attention to concept, craft, and process.
The result is a dynamic cross-section of contemporary practice: graphic designers refining their visual language, architects experimenting across disciplines, fine artists testing new materials and ideas, videographers adjusting their storytelling lens. Each project reflects rigorous study paired with real-world application — the kind of work that moves fluidly between studio, screen, and city.
For SCPS students, the exhibitions offer meaningful visibility from Pratt’s campus, connecting them with peers, industry professionals, and potential employers while strengthening an evolving portfolio. For curators, collaborators, and culturally curious audiences, they provide a snapshot of the forward-thinking ideas emerging from Pratt SCPS’s courses and certificate programs.
Online and on-site, the Pratt SCPS experience centers work that lives at the intersection of technical precision, conceptual depth, and interdisciplinary experimentation — hallmarks of contemporary art and design.
