Gage Academy Welcomes New SLU Campus

Purviews
Written By Michael Baldovino

Gage Academy of Arts closed their North Capitol Hill doors this year and moved into a new, improved, and larger space in South Lake Union. The move to South Lake Union (SLU) hopefully reduces the barrier that potential students may have from geographical isolation. The new campus provides a more central location relative to the rest of Seattle than its previous spot—new students will have easier access to art classes. While the move mostly benefits those from the North and West sides of Seattle, the Georgetown campus location has not changed and is a great option for those on the South end of the city.
