Portfolio Show

At the end of every quarter The Art Institute of Pittsburgh hosts a Portfolio Show as a way for graduates to showcase the skills they have developed while at college. Graduating students from all programs display their final portfolios and greet dozens of employers from all over the Pittsburgh area.

In each program, one student's portfolio is selected as best of show by the faculty. This exciting event is held on campus and is open to industry professionals, family, friends, alumni, and fellow classmates.
