Once established by the honorary board, the Academy has admitted its new members autonomously. Academy is 6 years old now and it has 36 members (ordinary and supporting). It is recognized in Wroclaw and Poland as a body gathering young and ambitious people connected by their common passion for science and art.

The Academy of Young Scholars and Artists organizes regular seminar meetings, does publishing, organizes open lectures and conferences on various fields of science. The Academy, as an advisory body to the Mayor of Wrocław, initiates and participates in innovative projects promoting science and art (for example a project concerning a new subject in Wrocław’s schools ''The Language of Machines'', the project ''BioLogic'', logic-critical workshops ''Thorough Thinking'' or puppet animation workshops). 

The Academy members create interdisciplinary research groups (for example psychiatry and computer science, biology and chemistry, fine arts and computer science, philosophy and mathematics) and they run research projects together. Academy’s discussions are as a rule shaped by a multitude of perspectives: they are explorations of unity of knowledge and unity of cognition.

This co-opeartion includes recent action, such as the co-organisation [“The Excellent Science Days”|Acad_Main/Past_Events/2011-present/Excellent Science Days] workshop which took place in Wrocław between 5-6 November 2015.
