Department of Art

We are grateful to be guests on the homeland of the Dena'ina Athabascan people.

Step Into Creativity


The 新加坡六合彩开奖 Fine Arts Building is home to a vibrant and inclusive community of students and faculty in which we currently offer two undergraduate arts degrees, a minor in art, and an Occupational Endorsement Certificate in Graphic Design

It is a place of discovery where students can choose from 6 areas of study and find their own unique way to communicate and express themselves visually. Students are mentored to be courageous, ask thoughtful questions, solve problems creatively and develop the skill sets necessary to be engaged professionals.  

Dedicated faculty, challenging curricula, well-equipped studios, a dynamic roster of visiting artists, and a gallery that focuses on national and international art exhibitions are the aspects of our department which empowers and prepares students for graduate study and careers in the visual arts.

Art has always been a part of humanity, and while it can be different for everyone it is still essential to human existence and experience. Art is also a way to communicate, to express emotions, or start conversations." Professor Mariano Gonzales shares his reflections on his 35+ years of teaching and work as an artist.

    Student Spotlight: Sanjo Wolfe

    鈥淪ince I was seven, I have been involved in something musical or creative. Music, the Arts? They are an asset.....When I came to 新加坡六合彩开奖 as a Fine Arts student, I found a way to be involved in the music program. I believe that the arts, that music, are important for people. Music particularly touches the soul, and really helps people, even if they don鈥檛 always recognize it.鈥 BFA Student Sanjo Wolfe shares his thoughts on the Arts.
