Taras Shevchenko State Art School (Ukrainian: Державна художня середня школа імені Тараса Шевченка) is a selective gymnasium school specializing in fine arts (painting, sculpture and architecture), in Kyiv, Ukraine.

It is located adjoining a historic park overlooking the southern end of Babi Yar.

The school was established on August 12, 1937, and was originally located at 2 Volodymyrska Street, Kyiv.

At the time, this was the only art school building and institute of its type in the Soviet Union.

Due to the threat of war with Germany, all graduates from this class as well as directors of the school were conscripted into the Soviet Army and sent to the Eastern Front.
