History
[edit]The Studia school (later Avni Institute) was established in 1936[1] by a group of Jewish artists. Among the founders was Aharon Avni, who became the school's first director. After Avni's death the school was renamed in his memory.
The school offers degrees in art and design and architecture. It also runs a Bachelor of Arts program in collaboration with the Open University of Israel.
The Avni Institute is located in a complex of buildings on Eilat Street in South Tel Aviv. The buildings are named after the school's leading teachers. On the premises is a large gallery space where students can exhibit their works.
