The Division of Art educates students within our liberal arts university to become productive in the fields of art. We value artistic excellence in the forms of rigorous inquiry, outstanding production and professional success. We believe that art made in this way moves freely among disciplines and finds its place in a national and international environment. We recruit the best students and faculty to create a community seeking knowledge, to nurture commitment to the study of art across a wide spectrum, and to provide a guiding force in society.
Alumni Art alum Ryan Conlin (B.F.A. ’09) draws on the creative skills and confidence he developed at Meadows in his career as a Senior Photo Retoucher while helping current students discover their own paths through mentorship.
