The Faculty of Fine Arts is located on the eastern area of Porto, just a few minutes walk from the city centre, in an old palace of the 19th century. In the 50s several buildings with architectural relevance were constructed on its garden, which were specifically planned to teach the common Fine Arts course units.
The students (about 810) have the opportunity to organize exhibitions, by the end of their degrees, in the Museum exhibition room so that they can show their work.
The Faculty also organises, usually outdoors, an annual exhibition of last year students. The best work selected by a jury is then bought by the Faculty so as to be integrated in the collection of the Museum.
