Oogie Art, Manhattan:
Oogie Art, located in midtown Manhattan, New York, is a private art academy, founded and directed by Wook Choi, that guides young artists, grades 7 through 12, in the words of Mayor Michael Bloomberg, to “greater heights of artistic creation.” Our students find our Art Portfolio Preparatory Program™ so effective that they travel from around the world to develop and submit their portfolios under our guidance. We offer career building services you can’t find anywhere else. This program, which makes up the core of each student’s learning and success at Oogie Art, offers its participants individualized instruction in group-studio settings; clean, spacious facilities; and an assortment of carefully selected technical and conceptual problems which we've found are most effective in stimulating in students new ways of thinking and growth.

Our programs are designed to help maximize, in more ways than one, your end results, demystify art school-related application processes and prepare you for the rigors of an undergraduate career. Since our school's inception our methods have yielded consistently high success rates. In fact, our students have been admitted into top programs at Cooper Union, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Michigan, New York University, Cornell University, Columbia University, Brown University, Dartmouth College, Duke University, Georgetown University, and Princeton University.
