West Coast Portfolio School? You Got It.

book180 Now Offers Pacific Time Zone Classes

Despite Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle being creative hubs, there are surprisingly not a lot of west coast portfolio schools offered. Most aspiring creatives rely on online programs and either adapt to East Coast or Central time zones or DIY their books with mentorships and internships. But West Coast creatives, we’ve got you! You no longer have to deal with awkward Zoom schedules, your work life conflicting with your school life, or missing out on your peak creative hours.

We’re changing that.

New for 2025: Pacific Time Zone Class Schedule

We’re really excited to announce that we’re expanding book180! For the first time ever, we’re launching a West Coast class schedule built specifically for students in the Pacific Time Zone.

That means:

• No more 4:00PM critiques when you’re trying to finish up at the office.
  
  
• A class schedule that works with your energy, lifestyle, and time zone.
  
  
• Instructors that are top creatives from agencies on the West Coast, and around the country!
  
  
• The same proven portfolio-building experience. Just in hours that work for you!
  
  

So whether you’re in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or even Salt Lake City, Denver or Boulder, this new West Coast track is for you.

‍

Same Program. Same Results. Your Time Zone.

The Pacific Time Zone class track delivers the exact same curriculum, mentorship, and creative workload as our East Coast version. You’ll collaborate with fellow aspiring creatives, build a professional-level portfolio, and get the kind of feedback that actually helps you grow.

We’ve always believed that where you live shouldn’t limit your creative education. So we made sure it doesn’t.
