Parsons School of Design
The Parsons School of Design, located in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City, is a design school affiliated (since 1970) with the New School University. Founded in 1886 by impressionist painter William Merritt Chase, the School is named after Frank Alvah Parsons, who joined the faculty of what was then known as the Chase School in 1906 and later became its president. Under his direction, the School quickly became a pioneer in design education, launching the first programs in fashion design, interior design, graphic design, and advertising in the United States.
