ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RMCAD is located on twenty-three wooded acres at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in Lakewood, Colorado, in the west-central part of metropolitan Denver. Looking east from the campus you can see downtown Denver's skyline, and looking west you can see the beautiful Rocky Mountains.

Whether you're into skiing, snowboarding, hiking or just soaking-up Denver's 300-plus days of sunshine each year, the Rocky Mountain front range is a great place to live. And, with a population of over two-million people, Denver offers a multitude of ways to spend your free time from museums to concert halls to shopping centers and entertainment districts.

RMCAD's unique campus includes eighteen historical buildings built in a variety of 20th century architectural styles. The campus has six Macintosh and Windows NT computer labs that are connected to print centers, and are designed for multi-use by all departments with specific labs designated for 3-D computer animation, video and sound, multimedia, computer-aided drafting, and advanced special effects.

Special learning facilities include a woodshop, ceramics studio, photography lab, professional sound studio, 283-seat theater, 35-seat audiovisual theater, large meeting rooms and a Library/Resource Center.

The Philip J. Steele Gallery features a rotating schedule of exhibitions that includes a mix of student, faculty and alumni work as well as displays by community groups to exhibitions by well-known visiting artists. Students can relax or study in the Student Lounge, take a break between classes on the grassy lawns under 100-year old trees, shop in the college bookstore or grab an espresso and a bite to eat at the Underground Café.
