What will I study?
Whether it's brushing bright colors on a canvas, molding a fresh piece of clay or peering at your subject through the eye of a camera, at Lander, you'll be able to set free your inner artist with the help of our experienced faculty. Your creations will come alive in the Lander Art Studio, which provides space for design, photography, and painting classes, or in the Cultural Center, where you'll find a state-of-the-art gallery, graphics labs and studios for crafts, ceramics, and sculpture. And with a course load designed to give you a broad background in visual arts before narrowing in on your favorite area for intense study, you'll have the opportunity to develop the skills you need to be a certified art teacher, art director, Web designer, graphic artist, professional photographer, or fine artist.
