The National Academy of Design, in New York City, now called simply, The National Academy, is an honorary association of American artists, with a museum and a school of fine arts.
It was founded in 1825 by Samuel F. B. Morse, Asher B. Durand, Thomas Cole, and others “to promote the fine arts in America through instruction and exhibition”.
The academy houses a public collection of over five thousand works of nineteenth and twentieth century American art.
It has had several homes over the years. Notably among them, in a building built during 1863-1865, of Gothic Revival style that was modeled on the Doge's Palace in Venice. Since 1942 the academy has occupied a mansion that was the former home of sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington and Archer Milton Huntington at Fifth Avenue and Eighty-ninth Street.
The school offers studio instruction, master classes, intensive critiques, various workshops, and lunchtime lectures. Scholarships are available.
