The result of the study is to establish the basic principles of transdisciplinarity, transversality, and transculturality as drivers of European integration in arts education in Ukraine. The process of European integration should be comprehensive, take place in harmony with professional training, and correlate with the academic traditions of national art schools, performing traditions, and artistic trends. Integrative processes should influence the development of curricula, practices, and individual disciplines.

European integration creates opportunities for the introduction of comprehensive approaches and innovations focused on the modern demands of creative professions. The practical significance lies in describing the complex components of European integration, identifying the difficulties and opportunities that arise during the implementation of integration processes into various concepts of art education.
