		In fact, the Casablanca School of Fine Arts was created in the early 1920s (though it was not officially inaugurated until 1951) at a time when the ville nouvelle of the city began attracting settlers and their capital from the metropole, thus pressuring the Protectorate Administration to expand urban development.
