Founded in 1857 through the philanthropic vision of Sir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy, the School has been a cradle of artistic and architectural excellence in India for more than a century and a half.
Today the institution comprises three distinguished schools — Fine Art, Architecture and Applied Art — each carrying forward a deep tradition of craft, scholarship and contemporary practice.
Three distinguished schools, united by a shared commitment to craft, scholarship and creative inquiry.
Painting, sculpture, printmaking and interdisciplinary fine art practice rooted in classical training.
Architectural design, urban studies and conservation, drawing on Mumbai's rich built heritage.
Visual communication, illustration and applied design — bridging traditional craft and contemporary media.
Stories from artists, architects and designers shaped by Sir J.J.'s legacy.
Sir J.J. didn't just teach me to paint — it taught me how to see. The studios, the light, the masters who walked these halls… every brushstroke carries that legacy.
Studying architecture inside a heritage building changes you. You learn conservation by living in it, and you carry Mumbai's grammar into every project after.
From hand-lettering at J.J. to leading a design studio — the discipline of craft this school instils never leaves you. It's the quiet edge in every brief I take on.
The print workshop became my second home. Faculty here don't hand you answers — they hand you tools, history, and the courage to find your own line.
Every sketch I made in the courtyard is still in my portfolio. Sir J.J. teaches you that observation is the first design skill — and the most lasting one.
