HOUSING

Dell’Arte does not have a campus with student housing. Upon request, the School Administrator can also connect you to a list of local landlords and housing resources to help you find housing for the duration of your training. We also recommend searching on Airbnb or similar sites for housing.  

Students will have the option to join a private Facebook group where they can connect with other students regarding  the sharing and coordination of housing and transportation. Please note your housing interest on your admissions survey to let us know how to best support you.

For our 2025 Summer Intensives, we are partnering with Cal Poly Humboldt in Arcata to offer a limited number of  additional housing possibilities nearby. These bookings are facilitated by the School Administrator. A small booking fee and a refundable security deposit  will apply if you select this option.

Ground Transportation from Airports

From Arcata/Eureka airport (ACV)
We are in a rural area, and popular rideshare apps like Lyft and Uber do not have reliable coverage here. You can take a shuttle service called Door-to-Door Airporter at 707-839-4186. You’ll want to arrange it ahead of time, once you have your flight information.  Prices for 2025 are $28.00 if you are a Dell’Arte Student,or $30.00 regular- so be sure to mention that you are a student when you book.

From San Francisco (SFO) or Oakland (OAK)
You can take the Greyhound Bus to Arcata. To reach the Greyhound bus station from the airport, use the local transit called BART (the schedule for the BART trains is here: http://www.bart.gov/). 

The Greyhound bus station in San Francisco is located at 200 Folsom St. Bus tickets can be purchased online or at the station. Be sure to take the bus to Arcata, CA. The bus doesn’t run every day, so look into Greyhound ahead of time if planning this route.
