If you’re looking to study art, theatre or fashion, Toronto is one of the best cities worldwide to get a creative degree, according to a new report. 

Print-on-demand company Printful analyzed the best cities in the world for creative inspiration by looking at the number of art galleries, museums, theatres, creative university courses and street art in 30 cities. It also highlighted which cities abroad are best for students pursuing creative courses, such as fashion, photography and journalism, by examining the number of creative bachelor degrees available in each city.

Toronto ranked as the seventh best city out of 10 cities worldwide to pursue a creative degree, with 68 different creative courses to choose from, according to Printful’s study.

In top spot was London with a whopping 690 courses to choose from, followed by New York City (289 courses) and Los Angeles (127 courses).

In addition, Toronto ranked among the top 20 cities in the world for creative inspiration in the study, with 194 creative events and 98 art galleries to check out.
