The Christy Clark Government has announced a big investment for a new state-of-the-art space for fine art students.
Emily Carr University has outgrown its home on Granville Island.
That campus was designed for only 800 students, officials say, while the school currently has enrolled 1800.
Premier Christy Clark says the government will contribute 113-million dollars with the remaining 21-million coming from other donors.
She touts it as a big pledge for creative skills training.
Construction is set to begin at the centre for digital media on Great Northern Way in east Vancouver in May 2014.
