Art in a small paradise
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars
The Institute of Arts Barcelona offers a BA Dance degree expelled by Liverpool John Moores University in a beautiful village, Sitges. It is a growing new college and eventhough that creates sometimes organization problems you will find a lot of creative people that will inspire and teach you.
Great university.
