NABA – New Academy of Fine Arts

Founded in 1980, NABA, Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, with campus in Milan and in Rome, is the largest art academy in Italy. Since 1981 NABA is legally recognised by the Higher Education in Art and Music system (AFAM, Alta Formazione Artistica e Musicale), regulated by the Ministry of University and Research (MUR).

NABA is not just a place of education guiding students to create their professional identity and personal expression. It is also a place of production, enabling students to experiment a plurality of experiences, thus acquiring independence in design, empowering them to consciously position themselves within the design scene and the international professional system.

DRAFT is a co-creation space that collaborates with national and international academic partners for the ideation and development of strategic projects in the fields of research and education.

Through the principle of co-creation, DRAFT is able to establish and maintain international relationships with both the academic and corporate worlds, with the aim of creating a network that facilitates the promotion of conferences, symposia, exhibitions, and publications.
