A thousand artistic possibilities in a uniquely multi-faceted environment
In focus
Ground broken for SKH’s new building
Today marked the groundbreaking for Stockholm University of the Arts’ new building in the Slakthusområdet district, which will bring all our art forms together under one roof. With this new building, we are responding to the challenges of a changing reality facing arts and culture: as AI transforms artistic practice, the labour market for cultural professionals becomes increasingly project-based, and culture plays an ever more important role in a society that is growing more divided.
Congratulations to all our graduating students 2026!
On 5 June, staff and students at SKH gathered to mark the end of the semester and celebrate all the new graduates.
