The educational television station ARTv is a media platform established within the university. Its main goal is to cover the interests, views, and achievements of young people. It aims to provide students with the opportunity to present their own ideas and projects to a wider audience. The television channel adopts dynamic and creative formats to attract the attention of a young audience.
As its brand name suggests, ARTv specializes in supporting young people working in the field of art. It is a platform created for the public to introduce them to the diverse world of various branches of art. ARTv frequently covers exhibitions, interactive shows, and events involving artists, directors, and representatives of the creative industries.
ARTv, the art television station, can be seen as a cultural treasure that contributes to public education and the preservation of cultural heritage. Furthermore, it plays an important role in promoting those young people who are less known and less appealing to commercial television channels.
The main activities of ARTv include:
- Music Programs – classical music concerts, explorations of modern musicians, and analysis of musical works.

At ARTv, students are given the opportunity to independently create television content. Young people are encouraged to experiment, explore different techniques and formats, and discover their creative potential more deeply. We believe that encouraging free thinking in the studio and any creative space is essential.
In today’s world, technology and digital media are becoming increasingly important. Future artists must be skilled in using various digital tools and software to bring their creativity to a wider audience.
ARTv provides all students with access to a technical base that enables the production of high-quality television content:
- Video and Audio Equipment – professional cameras, microphones, lighting systems.
- Post-Production – computers and software for video editing and processing (Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro).
- Social Media – students publish content on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook to reach a broader audience.
Student television is not only part of the learning process but also plays a vital role in students' intellectual and creative development.
Art is often not just an individual process. In nurturing future artists, we believe it is crucial to develop teamwork skills.
Students should learn how to collaborate with other artists, share ideas, and build professional relationships.
Currently, ARTv broadcasts the following shows: “Behind the Frame,” “Artemi,” “Get to Know in 15 Minutes,” and “Sports Podcast.”
The principles of training future artists involve diverse and inclusive approaches that enhance critical thinking, creativity, and the ability to engage with different forms of art. We believe that for an artist, it is essential not only to create their own work but also to evaluate and critically reflect on it.
In the process of nurturing future artists, it is vital for students to learn how to view others’ work from different perspectives and also accept constructive criticism.
ARTv – the art television station – is designed not only for young people interested in art but also for those who seek new and different types of information.
