Washington & Jefferson College

Studio Art Major

Studio art emphasizes the development of creative thinking and visual expression through a series of studio courses, beginning with foundations in drawing and design, and continuing in progressive level studio work in ceramics, sculpture, and painting.  The department offers the concentration in graphic design in collaboration with the Department of Information Technology Leadership and uses the W&J Technology Center's state-of-the-art technology. 

The Olin Fine Arts Gallery hosts five professional exhibitions per academic year, and a workshop or gallery talk by exhibiting artists accompanies each show. The department's academic programs offer a dynamic artistic education in the best liberal arts tradition.
