During the past two years, IAR has been renovating the entire three floors that the school has occupied in Greenwich Village since 1969. With the completion of the last phase of this renovation in January, 2007, all the public areas of IAR have been modernized. Entirely new offices have been created for Student Services, Career Services and Graduate Placement, Admissions, Financial Services, and Reception, and new acoustical treatments have been put into every classroom.

Highlights of the renovation include a new radio production booth for IARradio, our student-run, in-house radio station, an upgraded learning resource center, and a revamped student lounge. Prospective students and their families and friends are invited to call 212-777-8550 to schedule an appointment to tour our newly renovated facility. One excellent opportunity to visit IAR would be our Spring Open House on Saturday, March 3rd in the afternoon, for which a reservation should be made in advance.
