    I was desperately looking to get help with my portfolio for FIT and Ashcan was the perfect place for it. I had no drawing or sewing skills prior to coming here but after taking a few classes I've improved drastically in both of these areas. They helped me through each step of the way and made sure my portfolio was finished on time. I can honestly say that coming to Ashcan was probably the best decision I made in life!

    I highly recommend attending Ashcan for portfolio preparation classes because it's the perfect environment to check what level you're at and you learn different things from teachers from various fields. My thought process and ideas have matured as well as my technical skills. I truly discovered my potential and artistic style here; it felt bittersweet to leave after 7 months.
