Hey, no offense, but NYC has a few very large arts colleges and the city is teeming with arts majors looking for work. If you want to immigrate there, you'll need to really stand out from students that were hand picked from all over the world to study arts there.
- gt_ 8y agoWell, they weren’t “hand picked”. More often than not, they just came from families wealthy enough to cough up for expensive art school and the cost of living in NYC. A lot of my social circle falls in this category. That said, parent makes an important point. The US is full of art majors in general, but NYC is overflowing with them. But, US arts jobs are now almost entirely freelance; especially if entry level. While the cost of living makes it more difficult, NYC is still one of the only places with such an abundance of work that this is feasible. You can probably get freelance work there but moving into a full-time position will be a matter of upper-class networking.
