Pursue Art

• Art majors desire to channel their creative and critical thinking into the production and elevation of visual art. Recognizing the power of art to speak to people on a deeper level, art majors learn to see art for what it is and what it does as it recognizes and makes the world more beautiful—both past and present. They also desire to improve and excel at crafting their own work and discovering avenues of self-expression.
• Art courses require in-person studio time to develop skills under the guidance of a professor. As art courses show students “how to do” art, other courses will inform students how to understand and be inspired by humanity and their world.
• This degree can be completed completely on campus or with a mix of online and on-campus courses.
• GHC’s Art degree is a good first step toward a bachelor’s in Art. Art majors will develop a portfolio required to apply to bachelor’s level programs. Those interested in teaching should plan on pursuing a Master of Fine Arts.
