Our Students' Success Stories

Hear about the Galata Art difference from those who have experienced this process firsthand. We were there for our students from the moment they walked through our workshop doors to the proud moment they enrolled in the school of their dreams. Here are some heartfelt notes from members of the Galata Art family to inspire new candidates embarking on their artistic journey.

Chaala A.

I took an 8-week course on reading art from the esteemed Prof. Dr. Reyhan Demir. It was incredibly enjoyable, packed with information, and very fluid. I eagerly await her workshops on other topics 😊🙏🏼

I witnessed Onur Ünlü’s extraordinary talent in cinema by watching his films, and I experienced that delight. The lights his films created in my mind are always vivid and powerful. In his screenwriting classes, I witnessed his effective and efficient teaching style, born of his boundless intelligence and zero protocol approach.

An art center that is very different from cliché courses and has a very warm atmosphere. An art center where you won’t want to go home after class and will want to chat upstairs with a view of Galata.

A very pleasant place at the foot of Galata Tower where qualified instructors offer lessons at reasonable prices. You can come outside of class hours to practice and have a coffee. The fact that it feels more like a family environment than a course adds to the enjoyment.

Through Galata Sanat, I took an online screenwriting course from the highly esteemed director Onur Ünlü. The process was very enjoyable. I’m glad I did it. I would like to thank the Galata Sanat team for their efforts.

The instructor is wonderful, the owner is wonderful, it’s perfect for socializing, and on top of that, it’s a place where you learn more than you ever imagined. That place is called GSM.

This is the third art center I’ve attended for training. Compared to the other two, it has an extremely high-quality and welcoming environment. There are no business owners constantly chasing after you to sell you something. Plus, the weekend events are perfect for lifting your spirits 🙂 I also recommend joining in on the friendly banter with the owner, Mr. Kubilay 😊

To further my interest in archaeology, I took online archaeology courses. Our instructors were truly passionate and experts in their field. I would also like to thank Galata Art Center for their interest and support.

I have previously taken online courses from different institutions. However, the knowledge and experience I gained here were truly different from all of them. I hope it remains an institution that continues without compromising its standards.

F.A.Q.

Which Days is Galata Art Open?
Galata Sanat is open 7 days a week between 09:00 and 23:00.
How Much Are Course Fees?
Galata Art Center, which sets out with the philosophy of accessible art for everyone, has a program where you can receive 4 hours of private lessons, 4 hours of group solfege lessons, regular orchestra training and participate in many free events for the same price as only 4 hours of private lessons. In addition, you can always participate in our events, benefit from our free tea and coffee treats, study, chat with your friends and play games without having to be a student.
How Long Will It Take Me to Learn?

This is a question that does not have a clear answer. It is possible to give close answers only by evaluating it on a person-by-person basis over many functions. First of all, we should consider what level we are starting from. Are we starting from scratch or have we made small attempts? What do we want to learn, how much do we want to learn? The time it takes to say “I learned” will of course vary depending on your goal. How much will we care? Of course, there will be a difference between someone who exercises 1 hour a week and someone who exercises 1 hour a day.

What if I don't have talent?
Experts say that genetic factors are scientifically effective at a maximum rate of 3-5%. However, according to our observations over the years, the issue is not talent, but predisposition and education formed by environmental factors. Considering the effect of environmental factors, the only difference that can occur with anyone will be your learning speed. This is like a fast car and a slow car. Both can reach the goal, the slow one takes a little more time. Of course, we should not forget the share of passion. The higher your passion, commitment and determination, the faster you will learn. Finally, we would like to correct a misperception; it is impossible for anyone to learn an instrument or fail in an art branch with a good instructor and the right methods, against high passion and determination.
So, Why GalataArt?
Because Galata Art Center is a young and dynamic center with high life energy, which has the most appropriate methods and the most affordable prices, and is designed for more qualified art education from its manager to its instructor, from its design to its working system. Beyond a commercial enterprise, it is a collective community that works on education methods for the development of art in our country, publishes publications, and strives to contribute to nature and our future with the My Friendship Partner Project.
Where is GalataArt?
We operate with 9 branches in Istanbul Beyoğlu, Kadıköy and Kemerburgaz, Ankara, Çanakkale, Eskişehir, Bursa, Antalya and İzmir. We carry out corporate work from our office in Galata.
