 Welcome
Art Department Mission Statement The objective of the art program consists of the development of creative, expressive and technically competent graduates. Inspiration, material, skill and judgment are directed toward this goal, as well as to the ability to form qualitative judgments within an aesthetic and historical context. Art education should be thought of as a body of knowledge inseparable from the activities that confirm and document that knowledge. The learning challenge will include opportunities for the student to gain knowledge about the art of other cultures, as well as that of our own. The choice of materials, the accompanying creative challenge and the aesthetic rationale must be tailored to the intellectual, emotional and physical abilities of the individual student and contemporary culture. At all levels of art education, the major emphasis should be on a meaningful and rewarding creative experience, during which the student builds confidence with technique, concept, design and aesthetic judgment.
