Program Description

Graceland University students who take the Bachelor of Arts in Art with a concentration in Studio Art program encounter a contemporary program designed to prepare students to be socially engaged world-changers, have successful arts-centered careers and pursue lifelong engagement in the visual arts.

Graceland provides a place for gifted and motivated students to thrive, encouraging self-sufficiency and meaningful communication and collaboration, while studying in the extraordinary Helene Center for Visual Arts. Students can explore painting, sculpture, printmaking, design and more as they develop their own creative viewpoint rooted in the fundamentals of art and design. 

Graceland’s liberal arts campus environment encourages students to think critically in many areas of thought, so they have room to pursue other interests like the arts and athletics while working toward their degree.
