## History

The Art Institute of Dallas was established in 1964 as the Dallas Fashion Merchandising College. It was later renamed in 1978 to the Fashion and Art Institute of Dallas. A year later, the Institute was approved to grant an Associate of Applied Arts Degree. In 1984, the Institute was acquired by the Education Management Corporation (EDMC) to join The Art Institutes, and now bears its current name The Art Institute of Dallas. EDMC expanded The Art Institutes by investing in facilities and equipment, adding personnel to faculty and student services, and establishing a national marketing presence. In 1988, The Art Institute of Dallas left its European Crossroads campus and moved to a new North Dallas campus at Park Lane and Central Expressway where it remained until it closed in September of 2023.[citation needed]

On October 18, 2017 EDMC announced it completed the sale of 31 Art Institute Schools, including The Art Institute of Dallas, to the Dream Center Foundation. Subsequently, ownership passed to Miami International University of Art & Design.
