The Visual and Public Art major challenges and supports students as they develop enduring skills and perspectives. The curriculum combines studio work and public art processes. Theory and practice cover artistic production, exhibition, arts education, ethical interpretation, visual literacy and reciprocal community engagement. Through a rich interdisciplinary curriculum comprised of painting and drawing, sculpture and installation, integrated media and photography, museum studies and art history, our students graduate prepared to embrace a 21st century global art world.
