Haven't you ever dreamed an impossible dream?

Step into SCADstory — an immersive 4D experience that tells a universal tale of the dreamer in us all. SCADstory carries guests on an unexpected journey through SCAD history, across four decades of beauty, design, and invention. Told with the magic and wonder of 25 SCAD disciplines — from animation to themed entertainment design — SCADstory is a journey like no other.

Collaboration is key to the SCAD dream — and to the chronicle of SCADstory. To create this truly unique immersive experience, SCAD partnered with BRC Imagination Arts to reinvent storytelling and bring the SCAD dream to life. Get to know the SCAD students and alumni behind the magic.
