Study Art at PC

Your classes will be small, giving you lots of one on one time with your professor and elbow room to create. There are courses for the major and non-major alike. Graphic design, drawing, painting, art history survey courses, and beginning studio art courses such as Photography allow you to explore the relationships of art to your own experiences of the world.

A balanced menu of studio courses and art history allows you to gain knowledge and experience, focusing your energy in developing your talent in a chosen area. Art history courses place what you see in both a historical and social contextual understanding of art production across time and cultures.

In two-dimensional art you will gain insight and skills in drawing, painting, photography and graphic/computer design. In three-dimensional art, 3-D design, sculpture and ceramics will challenge your spatial manipulation and skill building with a variety of classical and contemporary mediums.

Study elsewhere

The Art Department's annual field trip to New York City, Washington, DC, or Chicago will give you and your classmates access to some of the greatest art collections in the world and access to behind the scenes work and those who restore, display, study, and create art.

Independent Travel and Study

International study programs let you explore the wealth of art available in other cultures while earning course credit. Three week Maymester art trips to Paris, Rome, Madrid, St. Petersburg and other international cities are available from year to year.

 

Art has no limits, and neither does the program. With careful guidance from your faculty advisor and department faculty, you can develop your own travel and study programs.
