Don't laugh! There are lots of reasons to consider enrolling in design courses in Idaho. First, the state ranks in the nation's top ten for job growth. As for creative professions, Richard Florida's The Rise of the Creative Class ranks Boise fifth on its list of Small-Size Cities for Creativity. Among Boise's fastest-growing industries are high-tech and information services. Clearly, it's easy to build a prosperous graphic arts or design career in Idaho.
Your Own Private Idaho
But as any creative professional will tell you, enjoying a good quality of life while completing art school is essential, and Idaho excels in this aspect. That's why Kiplinger ranks the Boise City-Nampa area on its list of Best Cities for All Stages of Life. With world-class skiing, whitewater rafting, and the Perrine Bridge, one of the only legal places on the continent for BASE and bungee jumping, there are no limits to the fun you can have as an art school student in Idaho.
